Mine was last week of the season my second season, televised game and I was working the chains. It was pouring down rain and the field was a mudy mess. As im trailing the play a defender gets blocked in the back falls out of bounds right in to my path i try to stop with out success flip end over end, stand up drop my flag for the illegal block then go and mark the spot. I was covered in mud from head to toe, thank goodness it was late in the fourth quarter. TV camera caught it all, and even got its own spot on the 10 oclock news.
