Notice I also didn't say "surprising" though too. Unfortunately I've also run into officials like that.

Good rules knowledge is not really a prerequisite for game assignments where I live. I see (or hear about) rules seriously screwed up in all 3 sports I work at the varsity level all the time. In the end, I can only make sure *I* know the rules and enforce them correctly.
