Score 62-0, 4 minutes left in the 4th quarter.

Winning team executes a screen pass that goes for 75 yards down to the opponents 2 yard line. All the while the receiver is running up the sideline the head coach is running with him telling him not to score. He finally runs OB at the 2.

Coach calls a timeout.

Yes coach, what is it?
I don't want the ball, I want to give it to the other team.

Coach, this is a Varsity, District game; you can't just give the ball to the other team.
But, I don't want it. We might score again.

Coach, why don't you punt.
I can punt on first down?
It's your ball you can punt on any down you want.

Team A punts, Team B is called for Roughing the Punter.

The coach yells, OK Mr. White Hat, "what do I do now?"

Coach, decline the penalty.

lol that's a good story.

I've never seen a team put their defense on the field again but I have seen a team that deferred to the second half and so at halftime they decided to kick it to the other team.
