I always chuckle when a team kicks off after a safety and someone yells that they're not allowed to use a tee. Another obscure NFL rule that someone thinks applies everywhere...

It is talking about the NFL. In NFL rules the fair catch kick is treated the same as a scrimmage kick field goal.
Even better is when teams think they must punt after a safety. I had a game where there was a safety with about 2 minutes left. K is losing by a few points with no timeouts so of course they are going to place kick and kick it short. They came out and punted it deep.
