I met crew!

I visited Florida this past week with my family. We stayed near Orlando, and I got to see an AAU game at the Walt Disney World sports facility. Great facility. I also got to meet our own crew (tony). I watched him work the game (HS rules/college mechanics) and he invited me to watch the game tape with the officials afterward. It was a lot of fun, and they asked me to work a game, but I had to decline. Tony has some bad habits (one hand to report, Tony ), but don't we all? Overall, he and his "crew" called a very good game, even though one of the teams just fell apart in the second half. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Incidentally, while I was there I met a guy who is 24 years old and worked 3 ACC games last season!! I also met an 18 year old kid who worked 8 varsity games in his first year of officiating HS basketball. I am clearly doing it wrong! I'm moving to Orlando. Seriously.
