HAHAHAHAHA!

I did not see that coming! However, I'm sure there were a few risque' moments at tournaments--especially since we dressed (and undressed) altogether, men & women.

Here's a funny---

At my 1st ASA National, I was called in 2 days prior to the start as a 'host umpire' for a 14U Slowpitch here in Metro Atlanta. I was very NERVOUS. The umpires had a construction trailer at the back of the park that was divided into 1 large room (food, drinks, sitting area), 2 medium sized rooms, 1 for dressing, 1 for UIC (Bob Savoie) and coordinator. There were 41 umpires, only 3 female.
So, I do my 1st game at 1st base, and have 1 off before I go back as PU. I'm polishing my extra pair of shoes in my T-Shirt, slacks and socks. In comes another crew hot and sweaty. One guy unzips and drops trou to floor, I thought I was going to die!! THEN I see the SPANDEX! No one had ever told me to wear spandex shorts and a sports bra--that way I could change in front of the guys and expose no more than a bathing suit would. HAHAHA After that episode, I always wore spandex shorts or the long pants that wick away sweat (and kept my double knee shin guards from rubbing my knees), and I had several sports bras.
Oh well, the life of a female umpire! Sometimes it got a little bawdy, but after that day, I enjoyed every second!
