Strange night
Last night I had what was probably the strangest game of my career. In a girl's JV game, where neither team was particular talented and both teams couldn't stop fouling, I had both a goal scored at the opponent's basket and an intentional foul for contacting the thrower-in outside of the line. I believe that's the third and first times, respectively, I've seen these things happen in the 15 or so years I've been refereeing.
What's the strangest thing you've seen happen? |
Resting on the flange on a free throw.
Twice I've had a held ball before the arrow was set. Both times there was surprise when I designated the jumpers. |

I've had both of those things you've had, East, but in the same game? You'll remember that one for a while.
Strangest one this year for me: FOUR plane violations in a game. |
I once saw a player attempt a three from the left side corner and the ball wedged on the far side of the rim! I've never seen that one again, twice I've seen the ball rest on the flange. Last year we had a game where the ball bounced up and rolled across the top of the backboard and then "fell" off right down through the basket. Of course on the last situation about half the crowd went nuts saying the ball was out of bounds!

I talked to a friend who refereed a game, I read in the paper they had 55 total fouls.
I asked him about it, they had a Double foul, a double T, a Flagrant foul with an ejection and a coach ejected. Now that's got to be a record.... |

But if A2 and B2 control the ball w/o either establishing control then A2 and B2 rejump. If A2 and B2 touch the ball at the same time then the ball goes OOB then A2 and B2 rejump. They said ALL of the above plays have A1 and B1 rejump. NO! no one(but me) spoke up. I got an earfull after the meeting. |

But we've all heard that before. :o |
Two years ago. Girls JH game loose ball off a rebound. Two opposing girls jump for the ball. Neither gets it. They return to the floor. Ball goes
out of bounds. I notice something on the floor. I think it is red gum. I go over and it is a bloody female product. Almost picked it up before I realized what it was. |
