Last year, inter - city rivalry game. I had lost about 25lbs since I had bought my pants at the beginning of the year (cue Richard Simmons music). Also, our league evaluator was standing at the baseline.
There is a turnover and as I sprint from L to T I feel the waist sort of slide down the hips. NP, I will wait for the play, give it the ole "Officials Pant Hike" and move on. But noooooooooooo, the kid has to turn the ball over. As I pivot to go BACK to lead I feel the waistband catch on my right hip and as I turn slide down my left hip. This leaves me running down the court like I am on a horse. Sure enough there is a bang/bang play and I don't call anything.
After the game the evaluator asks me about the play and why I didn't have a whislte. (He was standing directly behind me with the same angle) I told him there were two reasons. 1. I thought the contact wasn't sufficient to warrant a whistle as the offensie player was apparently going for Actor of the Year. He told me I should have blown the whistle, and I said OK. Then he asked what my second reason was. I said "My pants had fallen down, and I was a little more focused on trying to keep them above my knees". He said "I was wondering why you were running down the court funny."!
