Shorts and Flip-Flops

[MichaelVA2000]

Situation: PONY National Qualifier this weekend where you can be the UIC for the day and also umpire other days during the tournament when you're not the UIC.

The UIC (Mr. Xela) for Friday's games looses his car keys after a night of parting. It's now Saturday morning and the keys cannot be found. Mr. Xela is scheduled to umpire several games and his gear and uniforms are locked in his car.

Through rotation type scheduling, there are several umpires available to take the games but Mr. Exla decides that he will go ahead and officiate anyway as the base umpire. His umpire uniform consists of shorts, a shirt and flip-flops.

As a UIC or a TD, would any of you have allowed this to happen?

The UIC's name was changed so the guilty would not be embarrassed
