Correctable Error At The End Of Game?

[Adam]

The title of this thread is in my top five fears for a game. It's all too possible for the table to screw this up.
Me: "Is that ten?"
Table: "nope, nine."
After the horn, "Wait, that WAS ten."

It can always get worse. Years ago, I went to call jr. high games at a new charter school, that was just starting out. The games were played in a church gym. When I arrived, the guy who was to keep the clock asked a few questions.

"When do we shoot free throws?"

"One and one on the 7th. Two on the 10th."

"Will you tell us or do we need to keep up with it?"



Wait, there's more.

Partner had wrong directions to the site, and was late arriving. Principal told me what happened. "He's on his way, but we want to go ahead and get started. He's going to help you until the other guy gets here." He was pointing at the clock keeper.

Once we hit 6 I'm tracking the rest in my head until we hit 10.
