Funny story
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.

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...
