Funny story

[Texref]

We had two officials, no, I was not one of them , who at the end of a tie game left the floor and had to be brought back by game administrator. Basically, they weren't paying attention to score and when the horn went to end the game, they didn't realize the game was tied! Thought it a humorous way to start the second half of the season! 2-person crew, varsity game. No excuse for it to happen, but humbling for the officials involved to say the least.

I am sure you are aware of the events that happened but let me tell you anyway...blah blah blah...this is a TRAVESTY...blah blah blah...it shouldn't happen at ANY level...blah blah blah...but these guys will be allowed to do a Varsity game again because of who they are not their skill on the court...blah blah blah...this is a black mark for basketball officials EVERYWHERE!

I couldn't resist

They can't play overtime. They left the visual confines, so it HAS to be recorded as a tie. Not even the SCOTUS can overturn it!! It's true, it's true...
