"I wear my sunglasses at night" ...

My local board works a scholarship tournament, gratis, the Doc Hurley Classic, in the XL Center (former Hartford Civic Center). I've also worked an AAU scrimmage there during halftime of a MacDonald's All American game. My biggest adjustment problem was the lighting. I've never worked under such bright lights. It was actually distracting for several minutes.

The first year we worked there, one of our veteran officials got confused and reported fouls to the press table, that was on the other side of the court from the scorer's table. He never lived that down.
