Along the same lines (not mine but happened in a JC game)...

Fouls are 7-0 (NCAA rules) against the home team. Foul called on V1. V coach jumps up.

V COACH: Homered! I'm getting homered! I can't believe it!!
REF: (walks to bench) Coach, look at the scoreboard.
V COACH: What am I looking at?
REF: The fouls are 7 to 1 for...
V COACH: I know! I can't believe it's 7-1! Unbelievable!!
REF: Coach, your team has 1 foul, the foul we just called.
V COACH: ... well, don't I feel like an a**hole?
REF: Yeah you do. Now here's the thing: I have to give you a T for your homer comment.
V COACH: Oh darn it. What do we do?
REF: As I walk away, throw your hands in the air.
V COACH: You'd do that for me?
REF: Yes but only this one time.

Coach throws hands in the air, gets whacked. At halftime...

V COACH: Hey ref, nobody's ever done anything like that for me before. How can I pay you back?
REF: Sit down and don't say another word tonight.

He did as he was told (there's no seatbelt rule here).
