Jackets pre game

[Rich]

I never put mine on at halftime.

Matter of fact, I take mine off and fold it inside out before giving it to the table personnel to keep dirt off of it. Mine gets washed rarely. I never wear mine after I've worked, so there's no sweat put in it.

*OK, so you are telling us that the score table folks who are faculty/staff actually serve as your personal "coat/cloak check" minders--in much the same way the fine ladies do for me when I go to ruth chris steakhouse in the winter when I give them my leather trenchcoat prior to seated dining?
Wow!

Where the hell do you think our jackets go?

I fold mine and hand it to the person at the table that takes it and either puts it on an empty spot on the table or somewhere under/behind the table.

A few schools have someone who take our jackets to the locker room for us, but most of them give them to us as we're heading back at halftime.

*Well, based on what you're saying, I must say that I am surprised by the cordiality extended to you by those personnel in that they would care for your clothes like a servant. But hey don't take it the wrong way OK, I should be enamored by such!

Every school I go to will take our jackets and put them on the scorers table or in a spot behind the table. No exaggeration, every school.

Yep. Every school I've been to does the same thing. If they don't offer you just hand the jackets to them and they get the hint.

What do you think we do with the jackets?

[grunewar]

Most of our games include someone from our association on the clock. We just give them our jackets and they put them on the back of their chair and hand them to us at half time. We usually don't put them on as we depart at half time.

If we don't have a clock op, we give them to someone at the table. Never had a problem.

I like wearing the jackets prior to the game. It's the way we do business.

Every so often a score keeper will drape my jacket over their chair... while wearing about $50 of $2 perfume.....
