Small school Varsity game in the rain, and its been raining all day. I'm LJ in knickers, sidelines are under water with straw spread out to "help". 10 plays in, numbers are unreadable. 1st fumble, I toss beanbag, hear a splash. Never did find that thing (only time I ever used my spare).
What made it worse was the AD put us in the middle school next to the field- no showers available, just a supply room. We opened up a box of trashbags, dumped our uni's, shoes, ect in, and took off for 1 hr ride room. Threw those knickers away.
Crew chief told the assignor that we wouldnt take that home game again....

Doing a state championship game several years ago as the HL in the wind and ice. WH flips the coin and kid calls heads and coin drops to the ground. Kid says "hey we won the toss." WH says: "No I dropped it we have to toss it again." Same thing happens the second toss, with same kid winning toss, or so he thinks. Third try, WH finally catches coin, kid looses the toss this time despite having won the first two. We laugh about it now with the recently retired WH and refer to it as the best "1 out of 3" coin toss episode.
After that, and the NFL incident, I always have the kid call heads or tails before tossing, repeat it out loud, and I always tell them I am going to let it hit the ground. Never had a problem...
