Too many penalties

A question from a broadcaster. We did a crosstown rivalry game last night that was a rollercoaster with the twists and turns, big plays and turnovers. Good guys take the lead 24-20 on a trick play touchdown with 7:00 left in the game, and intercepted the opponent's pass in the end zone with :30 left.

But there were so many penalties in that game both ways. There were only two or three that neither myself, color commentator nor sideline guy saw. But the other 100 (not sure the exact number but it seemed like it) were seen by at least one of us. We saw virtually every infraction in the book, and only a few of them more than twice!

Have you guys had a game like that where it seems like every other play has a flag thrown? I know you aren't paid by the hour, so games like that must drive you crazy.
