Strangest thing you've seen on a field.

LOL. I got knocked out during summer no-pads LB key drills when one guard pulled left and the other pulled right.

I think so.

Nose Guard jumps off sides before the snap......drops and does 20 push ups right on the field as the ref marks off the penalty.

We were up 35-0 and had a cornerback in the game who had lost his hand above the wrist in an accident. So he's in trail technique on a post route and the ball comes his way, he reaches out with his good hand and bats it away--GREAT play. The ref on my side throws a flag and calls defensive holding.

I asked him who it was on and he gave me the # of the kid making the play. I said, "he batted the ball right out of the air, there was no hold!" He tells me "Coach, he had a hold of the back of the receiver's jersey with one hand and batted it away with the other."

So of course I called the kid over (who wasn't offended but laughing at it) and said, "is this the kid you're calling the penalty on?"

Of course the look on his face was priceless and I laughed . . .even when they were marching off the penalty!!!

A DT doing pushups as the OL comes to the line and gets into their stances. FUNNY!!!

Our kid lining up in the other teams muddle huddle formation.

This didn't happen during a game but during practice. Our scout team OG went in motion! He was to run trap.......he pulled up from his stance and twinkle toed right behind the QB.

We had a punt blocked by our protector except he was on the right side of the punter and decided to try and block the rusher comming from the left side so he turned ran in front of the punter and went to block the rusher at the same time the ball was punted. The best was he was reaching out for the block with his arms as it was punted so it really looked like he ran in and blocked his own punt with his arms.

We had a kid who was our version of 'Radio' at a JC. He was in charge of getting the tee off the field after the kickoff . . . . . you can imagine him running onto the field to retrieve the tee and almost getting run-over by the returner as he ran one back . . . . .

We played in a road playoff game my sophomore year where we got some lucky help. The other team was driving early and had a lot of momentum on their side. Out of nowhere in the 1st half, a sky diver (who was supposed to show before the game) lands at midfield. The other team gets a 15 yard penalty and ultimately turns the ball over. We go on to win a close game by a TD.

Playing out of state. Varsity game is over and JV game has begun. A thunderstorm is far off in the distance as the new officials take the field. White hat comes to our sideline and tells the line judge, "If these guys from Indiana try to give you any crap just tell them to go the ?$*@ home." Game starts and the storm is slowly drawing closer but not very close. Home team is up by one because they have NO kicker and made the two point conversion. Third quarter is drawing to a close and we have been told that the game could be called soon when the storm appears very close. At this time the lightning is nowhere near the town let alone the field. As we put together an impressive drive and threaten to score I yell to our kicker to get ready, after the next play the white hat calls the game. Says the storm is too close. Half an hour later it begins to rain.

In the varsity game, we were well in control, up 4 scores. THe home team scored in the fourth on our young kids. We take the ball back and run some time off the clock before the drive stalls. We put and they take over on their own 30ish yardline. Time is almost off the clock, home team throws a deep pass complete then calls a timeout. Next play we drop four deep and they throw a long ball down our sideline, it is completed and out player proceeds to push the carrier out of bounds without tackling him. The player continues to run 7 of the remaining 9 yards out of bounds before re-entering the field and scoring the TD. The side judge explained, "It really doesn't matter, you guys still won." Not the point, call it right.

We don't play out of state anymore!

Wow, having your guy running the wrong way is funny enough. The other team's TB busting his butt to prevent his team from winning is hilarious.

Another one I had last year was we were on the road playing at someone else's homecoming. In the 2rd quarter one of their students (male) starts running around on the field wearing a helmet and a thong. He must have been a CC runner or something because it took the cops a few mintues to catch him. Eventually he was running past one cop who stuck his leg out and tripped the kid who did a complete somersault before the rest of the cops beat the crap out of him.


I have also seem a gamed called because our kids hurt ALL THREE of the opposing teams QB's. So they didnt have any QB's left to play.
