Jackets pre game

[Kansas Ref]

I agree, jackets have been de riguer, and I've never bothered to ask why it is necessary. I prefer to wear mine at the proper times (pregame, half time, post game), I like the quasi-anonymity it provides---tho everyone knows I am the ref tho ( I mean what else would that guy standing at halfcourt talking with another guy dressed the same way be doing aside from reffing the game? lol). I do like the warmth it provides during halftime and the cover it provides quick juant to my car after the game tho.
