Strangest thing: “Whatcha doing after the game?”
After coaching a rec league this past spring, I've learned rec league parents can be every bit as bad (or worse) than travel parents!Note it was rec league so nothing too serious.
In his defense you could be st softball fields across the street from our school. In full view of the HS sign. Every person there would be wearing HS gear. And you could be in the wrong place. On the other hand our varsity fields have no view of the school sign.As we were about to take pre-game infield at our HS, one umpire comes to me and asks if he's at our HS? He's supposed to work the game there.
What's so odd about that? I am wearing my school softball coaches shirt, and he had an unobstructed view of the sign on the school which I politely pointed to.
He was awful. Gave the safe sign on a steal while verbally calling the runner out.
Have not had him work our games since.
