Two footballs on field, two TDs, different teams

Saw this one on a Tennessee high school discussion board, thought I'd share it.

2nd & 2, B's 35. Sweep comes left toward A's sideline, there is a fumble and all of a sudden, there are two loose footballs on the field. A picks one up, goes untouched into B's end zone for an apparent TD, B picks up the other one and goes untouched into A's end zone for an apparent TD. The balls are identical; it is impossible to tell which was the one in play during the down.

After a long discussion, A is flagged for sideline interference and both TDs are nullified.

Thoughts? Anyone ever heard of anything like this happening, ever?

The crew's call sounds like the only thing that could have been done. If I saw something like this, I would get a tape of the game for review by league authorities. Disciplinary action should be taken against the person(s) responsible for this hocus pocus. From your description, it may have been deliberate and it should be punished.
