Plus, I "pop" a Listerine Strip before every game. Like some others, I don't think I could walk, chew gum, and ref at the same time.... :rolleyes: |
I know folks who do. I can't. One reason I can't is that I instinctively blow bubbles when I chew gum.

I don't chew it while I'm talking to players or coaches. |

Every game. I only use 1/2 a piece each half though and never chew it when speaking to players or coaches.

No. I'd fall down.

Yes I chew gum. Have been doing so for 20 years umpiring baseball and softball and the first basketball game I did this year I went without because I didn't know if I could blow the whistle and chew gum.
That was just one more thing that threw me out of sorts, put gum back in for the 2nd game that day and everything felt better. |
I'm Serious ...

ive had partners who walk, chew, whistle and talk. Me? I have trouble holding the whistle in my mouth and if I try chewin gum, i know it would en up on the floor and sombody would see it come out of mouth and on a player's shoe...end of career. I soak my whistle in scope every 2 weeks and use Listerine breath spray. keeps the dry away and mouth tingling. :D
