The very first scrimmage I worked as a back judge, we had an interception. I threw my bean bag and hit the spot perfectly from about 20 yards away, and followed the play like I should. I was really...

Bingo. As soon as R makes the catch, the ball is dead, so it's a DBPF enforced from the succeeding spot (the spot of the catch, in this case).
