I know how he feels...this Sat. night it happened to me. Only the 2nd time I can remember it ever happening...but, it happened.

I was very busy Saturday and neglected to drink much water. When I went over to check and sign the books...I couldn't even see my name as I wrote it in the books. I had a couple of partners that I don't usually work with and they don't really have much Varsity experience. I told them they were going to have to "carry me". Their eyes got wide and I wondered then if I should have said anything. This game had two big rivals with one of the teams rated 1st in State.

We got through the 1st Quarter...but, it was somewhat uncomfortable. I told the table crew that I was having trouble seeing. The clock operator gave me a bottle of water and said it might help. I drank it quickly before the 2nd quarter started. By the end of the 2nd quarter I was fine. My partners really stepped it up for the crew...and we ended up having a good game.

Moral of story: keep yourself hydrated on the day of your games...duh!

P.S. chseagle...do you have water ready for stoopid officials, like myself?
This table guy really saved the day.

We can easily get water for the officials from the concessions.

BTW from the grapevine I hear there's a meeting on the 31st.
