It took place in a senior's community next to my town and featured a team from the Lions Club and a team from one of the senior retirement villages. It ended in a tie. Gee, I wonder how that happened.

A good croquet official never lets a match go to overtime.

Your IAACO membership is rescinded.

There was no OT. Everyone was way too tired. They all retired to the lounge to watch Lawrence Welk reruns.

Besides, I am not, nor have I ever been, a member of the I Am A Crappy Official organization. At least that's what I tell my assignors.
