Schedule error. There was no game. I showed up with my kit bag, and head in the game and well-hydrated, and well-rested, and there was no game. That's all!!

Do you feel let-down reading this? Do I feel let down writing it!?!? Oh, well, I know that first is coming soon. I'll be ready when it does...
You didn't call the school and verify the game? We ask all officials here to do that to avoid this very situation--lots of officials, games and schools. Some mistakes are bound to be made by the scheduler. A quick phone call by the officials as a double check helps a lot.
We don't have very many of these. We aren't required to verify games. Our assignor is enough on top of things that this doesn't happen very often at all. If it had been 6th grade girls, I'd have been relieved that I didn't have to work it. I'd rather be home making dinner with my 12-year-old. But like I said, it wasn't a long drive, and I'll get another varsity game soon, so... oh, well. Getting stood up for a game, isn't as bad as say, the prom!!
