Early on in my career I did a MS game where it was 0-0 at the end of the first quarter. No fouls either. Only blemish on the scoreboard was the 1 which reflected the quarter.

As I approached the table, the clock op (AD) looked at me and said, "That's six minutes of my life I'll never get back." Classic for me!

I've managed to work some really lop-sided games since moving to Wisconsin. The 88-12 boys game this year. Last night.

But the worst was a first round girls playoff game where the top seed played a small private school who spent the year playing small private schools. 23-0 after one quarter, the final score was something like 92-9.

I've now worked 17 games this season and the closest one was 8 points and *that* game didn't even feel close. Luck of the draw -- we're scheduled almost 2 years in advance, so sometimes you end up with an unexpected gem and other times....
