Exclamation

Nine in 24 hours certainly isn't the most I've ever worked, but it is at this age. About 7 years ago, I worked a tournament of 4 on a Friday night, 10 on Saturday and 8 on Sunday, including the title game which started at 10:00 pm. For you guys on the East coast, that means I was blowing my whistle at about 2:30 am your time. Hope I didn't wake you.

For you Portland area guys, this was a kids tourney for Robbie Fenk at Tigard HS (full HS court - yikes). The nice thing about Robbie was not only that you got paid cash at the games, but you got free concessions, too.

Our rec league went up to $25/game this year! Easy money...

The hoops facility I work at is $20/game...

No freebies at the concession stand at either place

Those game fees really should be the other way around....the reg leauge is just so laid back compared to the other place and the Jr High games I work.

30 agame is about as low as I'll go. I realize it's where you reside, but that's pretty much the minimum in the Chicago area.

As a former Chicagoan, I'm curious as to the part of town in which you reside. No particular reason (I'm not a stalker or anything), just curious.

Born on the great South Side. Lived there until 3rd grade then moved to Chicago Heights where I grew up and went to HS.
