H.S. Team Starts Game With 15 Yard Penalty Because The Band Director Chewed Out The Refs

A high school band director in Ohio gave the referee an earful before the game and got his team a 15 yard penalty along with an ejection. Gotta love that passion...

I realize we need good high school sports officials, but so many across so many sports are looking for trouble. They're emotional and so worried about being shown-up. Band kids work hard, too.

Fill me in on what happened? Video is garbage

They're probably sick and tired of getting jumped by players and more importantly coaches and parents that they're all running on short fuses. I don't blame them either.

I didn’t know penalties could be assessed prior to the start of the game. Thrown out, sure.

happens more often than you think - but usually on players getting in pre-game fights with the opposing players.

By rule, the officials take control of the game 30 minutes before kickoff.

2001 Auburn/LSU. Auburn got a penalty I think for stomping on eye. LSU opened with onsides kick.

Lol. I almost got an unsportman like penalty last year from the scores box. I was running the clock and leaned over to the announcer and said a little to loudly the call was terrible (it was) not realizing the Mike was hot. It was broadcast throughout the stadium and they assessed a sideline warning.

Band was leaving the field...what can you argue about?

Love the passion!

Refs were obviously in the bands way as they were leaving the field. Probably telling the refs to get out of the kids way and the refs got huffy. Most high school refs are losers on a power trip.
