There are many crews simply wasting their time on friday nights at 1a football games. We wouldnt even have to contract all of 1a football, if we removed just half of these teams, we could easily have enough zebras for everyone else. Or at a New Palenstine vs. Shelbyville football game. Or at a Western Boone vs. Frankfort football game. Quote

I happen to know the crew working the Shelbyville New Pal game. They are driving from Evansville!! When there was a possibility the game wouldn't be played I expect they weren't heartbroken. Blowouts are the hardest games to work because you have to work harder to concentrate every play. Close games are fun because it's easy to concentrate. And they aren't stressful because you don't care how each play or the game ends. They are just another play. 3 Quote

I realize this is a troll, but at the same time as an official give me a good game regardless of class any day. In close games there are pivotal plays. Where everyone is laser focused, you know you have to be good on this play. There are a handful of games over the course of your career where every play of the game is like this. These games are rare, and among the most fun to work. And if you're fortunate enough to walk off the field knowing you had it covered, there is no better feeling in the world. 2 1 Quote

1st and Goal Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 What do they make a game out of curiosity Quote
Gipper Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 I would love to referee, but my job is cataclysmically tough and involves a lot of travel. Quote

I"m not sure of sub-varsity since I don't work it any longer but I believe it's $50-$60/game. I do know one conference does double headers on Saturday morning with freshman/JV and they pay $125 to work both games. Quote
