. . . that means, on the average, a foul every 24 seconds!
In addition to the bonus and double bonus free throws, and given there musta been the occasional violation every now and then, how long did this game take?

Let's just say that it began in 2003.

Apparently, his state is using a 24 second foul clock.

FB first game. Partner and I pregame. Let's let the boys play, establish a flow, get into the rhythm, etc.

Tap is won by V, breakaway. V1 misses layup and gets the rebound. Wwrapped up by H1. Me - TWEET! Foul H1. SEVEN SECONDS INTO THE GAME! V inbounds the ball under their basket, H applies pressure. P is Lead. TWEET! Travel on V2. AT THIRTEEN SECONDS! Noooooo!

Thankfully, the game settled down after that. We weren't even in the on-and-one the first half. Looked like it was going to be one of those nights. Thankfully, it wasn't!
