Ithaca Bout

Okay, so I'm a little behind. This happened on the 11th of the month and it was great (at least for me). I was assigned the penalty box (as it's the only thing that I'm comfortable with as an official). EZ LEE BRIBED was a great head ref (as far as I was concerned). I really enjoyed the ride up to Ithaca (and slept most of the way back, so I enjoyed that too). The bout was great. . .well. . .what I saw of it, which wasn't all that much. The other penalty box person was Female Trouble, who was new to doing the box. So I helped her out with it. Which I have NO problem doing. It just means less of watching the bout. Though, even doing one box, you may not watch a lot of the bout. Which is fine, because it keeps me busy and is the reason that I have a decent reputation for doing the penalty box. Hell, the last time I had to turn down PVRD due to a wedding, they almost cancelled the wedding!!! (Course that I might have been because three of their usual refs had weddings to go to).
Anyway, Female Trouble did do an awesome job, but she's an actual "skater" with Ithaca (I only use the quotes because Hellions includes the referees as "skaters," but Female Trouble will actually be playing in bouts eventually. That's when it will be a bad thing if she joins me in the box). Which reminds me, I need to see about ordering the hot pants that have the "get in the box" printed on them. . . now back to our regularly scheduled blog). The Hellions did an awesome job of skating. There were times when I wanted to yell things to them, but I was a good girl/referee and I kept my comments to myself. I definitely had a good time and I think EZ Lee will be having the ref crew as well as probably the team, back again some time.
