Scratch85 I've only had games with one overtime. All of them were extensions of the 4th quarter. 😎 I know, I'm being an a$$, don't hold it against me. I like OT's. They are usually exciting and I feel like I got my money's worth in this "officiating world" that usually leaves us wondering if the money was worth it! Sorry Mark. 😮
kgeorge0263 3 OT's, 112-108, 3 person boys varsity...took 3.75 hours on a friday night. No changes...was an exciting game and although the fee was low ($55), was a memorable experience. Players began fouling out...
Terrapins Fan 2. One visitor down by 3 with less than 3 secs. shoots what he thought was a 2 and make it, but toes hit the line...lost by 1 in Double OT. No changes. But maybe is I had a Quad OT, I might want to think about the first to a 4 point lead....

IowaMike Three overtimes has been my longest. It was the first game of a jv/varsity boys doubleheader. Of course as luck would have it the varsity game that followed went into one overtime period. Long night but it was all good basketball.

Jurassic Referee I had a 7-overtime league varsity boys championship game...many years ago. Enjoyed the hell out of it.

Welpe Scratch85 wroteWhat then? Game suspended for the day. They played on a Tuesday evening a few weeks later. They brought out a whole new crew for the game, paid a full game fee and they only played three downs before the game ended. Nice scam!

Even with the same crew, another full game fee.

BktBallRef Scratch85 wroteI gotta get my football license. Easy money! 😃 No matter the sport, that rule exists for any NCHSAA game. Suspend the game for whatever reason and the crew that returns to complete the game gets a full game fee.
