OK I'll throw out a couple. Late in the first half, frustrated coach yells out after another foul is called against his team "Are you ever going to point the other direction?" I politely say "Yes sir, next half." ;D In the middle of the second half a frustrated dad yells out "That's terrible! I could do a better job!" I reply "OK, I'll give you the whistle for the next half!" He excitedly replies "OK!" Then after a few seconds of thought, sits down shaking his head. DUH? College coach comes running down the line to me as AR1, screaming "She was not offside, she was not offside! I'll show you, I have it recorded!" I reply "Coach no matter how many time we rewind it and watch it, the flag is still going to go up, the whistle will still be blown, and the other team will still be given an IDFK." Happy are you going to write a book of quotes? I once heard LSU coach Fatopolous (sic) tell an AR that it was impossible that the player was offside. In a a good natured way George said " that player is not fast enough to get offside". Everyone had a good laugh about it, the player didn't hear the comment.

After an offside was called, directed an AR: "Take your German Shepard and your white cane and go home."

We played in a game once where a wiley player for the other team was getting a few extra licks in with some regularity. A dad in the stands was quite ticked because his son was the subject of these free massages. As fate would have it, the ref took a dive landing flat on his face. The respose from the dad "What happened ref, did # so and so not foul you either?". To be fair the ref laughed it off. With about 10 seconds left inthe match the ref went over to # so and so and gave him the yellow. He then yelled to the dad...that was for the foul he had against me! Hilarious.

I was at a game once where a dad in the stands yelled to a ref near the touchline "I thought your doctor said to stop reffing!". The ref replied, "I passed my physical, did you?". The dad replied, "It wasn't because of the physical, he just said that he had seen you referee before!".

Heard a new one tonight: Both players bumbing into each other, shoulder to shoulder challenging for the ball. The coach yells, "Come on ref. He's pushing him back."

The current issue of Referee Magazine has a good comeback for refs. It sounds like a good reply to a screaming coach.
"I heard you twice the first time"

I just want to thank all referees for trying to provide some sense of order to an often chaotic game, and, as a result, for being the focal point of our unsportsmanlike & juvenile behavior.

One of the best I've heard was when the CR did the 'almost whistle' move. We've all done it. It's when you anticipate an incident and instinctively move the whistle to your mouth but withdraw it when the incident does not develop.
From the stands, we heard, "C'mon, Ref! You're supposed to blow, not suck!"

a few notable ones off the top of my head.. was working a game at the Pit (HS boys) several years ago, when everytime I would make a call, I would hear vocal student section chant a cheer by spelling out referee, then saying together 'I wanna be a referee'.. Not once did they spell referee right.
I was the plate umpire for a baseball tournament 2 summers ago when one parent, whom had been vocal the whole tourney, yelled out 'Hey ump, bend over and use your other eye, your good one!' I chuckled
Oh, another one. I was officiating a HS football game last fall, when before the game I was talking to the coach, and then asked him if the crew should be prepared for any trick plays.. His response was 'When the center snaps the ball to our qb w/out fumling it, that's our f'in trick play'.

Last week, one of my players committed a hard foul. The opposing coach said, "Hey ref, can I at least get a warning?" Ref turned to the coach and said, "Consider yourself warned." We all had a good laugh.
