I guess I have finally arrived!

[Axe Man]

As of last Friday night, I feel that I have finally "arrived" as an official. After many years of working far to many sports, I have been chased from the field. Our game was one of the best I have had as a football official. Home team down 14 - 3 with 5:00 to go. A field goal, onside kick, TD bomb, and 2 point conversion, we go to overtime. First play in OT, obvious block in the back on a sweep to the visitor side. As a new white hat, I am trailing the play, easy call. Coach says nothing. Visitors kick a field goal. Home team scores untouched on thier first play and win 20 - 17. Great game. As we are running out of the gate with the AD, I hear, "Sir, Sir, how can you call a block in the back when he hit him in the shoulder. Sir, Sir!" I never looked back, just kept going. After we got to the locker room, I asked my crew who was chasing us. They let me know that "I" was being chased by the stat guy from the visitors. Guess this means that I have arrived.
