Happened to me not too long ago. AD had heard from the coach of the team arriving late. Traffic related delay due to road closure for med-flight, no way to get there on time.

Once they arrived they were given 20 minutes to get settled and warm up and we tipped off an hour and a half late.

AD was generous that night, gave us a free water from the concession stand.

Sat with my partner during the delay and had a great conversation about officiating. I recall we decided among other things that officials should get a premium fee for working games on rubber on concrete floors.
