Funny you should ask. Both coaches came to me together before the game and requested to play three 30 minute periods with 5 minute water/coaching breaks. I don't know how much the players drank but I drank ~80 oz during each of the breaks.

WOW! You drank five of those large size Gatorade/Powerade bottles (32 oz) in two five-minute periods that were separated by only a half and hour.

Are you the type of camel which has one hump or two?

I couldn't get that much fluid into my body if it was injected.

I was just thinking that you might have a future in those competitive eating contests when you decide to stop refereeing.

Opps, ~40 oz at each break, 1 standard size G2, then refilled with water. So no Hump but man do I sweat.

If you had consumed that much gatorade in one game you could have thrown your eloctrolyets out of balance. I know I guy who did that once and ended up in the hospital for a few days. If I drank that much of anything during a game they'd have to finish it without me because I'd have been in the bathroom the rest of the game peeing.
