Not to brag, but this Friday I worked a BV game with about 23 fouls. It was glorious I tell you.

I worked one earlier this season with 13 total (9 and 4). They could've called their own.

I have dreams about sub 60min games. I heard such a game exists, but I'm starting to think its just a story to keep me going.

I'm not sure how many fouls were called but I worked a GV game in the 2010-11 season where we shot 80 FTs (they made 47). Believe me, we needed every last one of those FTs because the kids were hammering each other.

I'll verify that the 60 minute game does exist albeit rarely. We had a 46-4 blowout with only about ten fouls called the entire game and one the second half. Hoe team was a smal Christian school with maybe 5 of the seven girls being foreign exchange students from Rwanda. They got beat handily but appeared to have a good time being able to participate in such a high level of basketball. The visitors were gracious the second half and did not press or play defense really for that matter, thus only one foul called. They must of instituted a ten pass rule because they passed a lot before they were allowed to take a shot. But we were exactly a hour on time. It was awesome.

Had a girls varsity game similar to this recently. A total blowout. The winning teams coach decided to not contest any shot attempts by the other team in the second half. He said, "let them shoot and work on rebounding".

I'm not sure why 46-4 would ever be classified as awesome.

I had a 54 foul JV boys game last Tuesday with multiple technical fouls.
