I have yet to work a game where the scorer actually had one. The usual response is "we just ordered one" or my favorite, "I thought it was just a suggestion?"

Batting .500 here. "On the way from Honig's right now..."

I like the rule. Rather than looking for a set of eyes from amongst four people, not only need to look for the one set of two.

Funny you say that, walked out to find the exact same thing last night. explained to them the rational behind the rule and i think the light bulb came on.

Also had a guy wear a pinny (sic?) which would of been ok except it was yellow with diamomds on it my guess is the AD just grabed it from the chain gang stuff right before kickoff err tipoff.

Also had a partner relay a story where a guy just stuck a mshsaa state patch on the sleeve of his shirt :rolleyes

I like our instruction: "If they're not wearing stripes, don't deal with it."
