Don't make them send them back for correction, should be "Junior Under-Assistant for Crowd Control" and, due to his bad wheels, "Special Attache to the Ministry of Silly Walks". (props to Monty Python).

Back in the days when the WWF ruled, there was a scorekeeper extraordinaire. And, such was the uniform he wore.

Wasn't there a jobber known as The Scorekeeper? I think even HE lost to Barry Horowitz (really reaching out to all of the true past or present pro-wrestling fans on this one).

Worked for my first high school game tonight. Quote of the night from a coach questioning why I called an intentional foul against his player for excessive contact. "But he got the ball. You can't call intentional if he got... the ball."

Oh and working games with almost no voice is NOT a fun adventure. I think I sounded like Chip and Dale squeaking out that intentional foul call.

Looks like when I get the shirt I'll have to take pictures of it as well as of the 4A Regional Staff shirt.

Yup. He hurt his knee, retired and is now Head Timekeeper of the Pacific Northwest.

Not as much fun as a scorekeeper with the same issue, I'm sure.
