Question Anybody know this guy?

It's NBE, er, I mean NBA week on Wheel of Fortune and some of the contestants have ties to basketball. Last night, one of them was a guy named Jim Rhodes from Austin, TX. He said he was a retired chemical engineer and has refereed for 25 years at the HS, college and international level. He won over $30,000 in cash! I guess he can buy a new lanyard.

Anybody out there know him and what he meant by "international" games? I'm pretty sure they don't use FEEBLE rules in Texas.

Texas is close to Mexico. That would be international.

If he does FB, with that kind of cash he can buy: 2 flags and 1 chain clip.
