Hair Out of Bounds
 
Is the ball out of bounds if, the hair of a player holding the ball, is out of bounds?

The ball may not be out of bounds, but the player that the hair is attached to is most certainly out of bounds.

Pony Tail, Or Horse's A*s ???
 
2005-06 NFHS Basketball Rules Interpretations
SITUATION 9: A1 recovers a loose ball on the playing court near the sideline, with his/her body entirely in bounds. However, A1's head is hovering out of bounds and his/her hair (which is in a long ponytail) is touching the floor, out of bounds. RULING: A1 is called for the out-of-bounds violation. (7-1-1; 7-1-2; 9-3-1)

Had that for the first time I can recall this year.
Girl on the floor for a loose ball and the "only" part out of bounds was here pony tail.

Called her OOB, and received some good natured ribbing from the bleachers.
