Your best Ref digs...

Re: Your best Ref digs...

My dad took me to my first and only North Stars game when I was 9 years old. They were awful that year and there was maybe 1500-2000 people at the game, so it was pretty quiet. At some point previous to the game, I had learned the phrase, "Go suck an egg," and thought it was funny to say it all the time.
In the third period, we had moved down near the ice, and the North Stars were losing 6-0 and getting screwed by the refs. I stood on my chair and yelled, "Hey ref, go suck an egg!" The 40 or 50 people in the section around us roared. I'll never forget that. :)

My favorite saying when the ref sucked at our home rink was " HEY REF , ARE YOU THE BUS DRIVER." :D


Hey ref , what does your wife and a goalie have in common ? " THEY ONLY CHANGE THEIR PADS AFTER THREE PERIODS. " :o :eek: :o
 
Re: Your best Ref digs...

At UND the students are on the penalty box, which happens to be where the refs come out onto the ice. On Friday night the refs were just standing in the penalty box waiting to go on the ice and my idiot of a friend decided it was a good idea to reach over the glass and tap Don Adam on the shoulder. On Saturday before the game, a security guard came and talked to us and said not to do that again because Adam was pizzed about it and wanted whoever did it kicked out.

So a little bit later when the refs were waiting to go onto the ice I asked Adam "So wait, if I tap you on the shoulder I get kicked out of the game but if I break a guy's f^cking neck, I get a two-minute minor?". I don't think he was amused.

Once when I was really mad at Jeff Bunyan:

"Nepotism, nepotism, sis boom bah!"

At RPI, the band also contains within their possession an eye chart, and is pulled out for "special occasions". It states, formulated as such using appropriate sizing:

E
A T M
E R E F Y
O U S U C K L
E T S G O R E D
 
Re: Your best Ref digs...

On Valentine's Day I once made a sign asking the ref to be my Valentine. I think it was Hill or Hall...can't remember which. All the refs/linesmen laughed at it during warm-ups. Then after some horrible penalty calling during the game I ripped the sign up.

Unfortunately, at Michigan Tech, for every quality tidbit shouted at a game official, the next 5 or so periods are spent by everyone thinking they know how to officiate but failing miserably at it and going nuts over every blatantly obvious call just because it is against us.

True of any fan base at any level. I can't tell you the number of time I've heard fans chant "bull s***" at the refs for an off-sides call that was correct.
 
Re: Your best Ref digs...

To take the opposite approach, I was at a high school section final at Mariucci about 4 or 5 years ago when the Bloomington Jefferson student section did something I thought was hilarious. Every time the refs skated in front of their section during warmups before the game or between periods, they would give a standing ovation with as much passion and volume as if their team had just scored. I don't know if they still do this or not, but I thought it was a riot. :D

Also, if it's a delayed penalty you can always do the:
"Hey Ref, (More effective if you know the ref's name), raise your hand if you're gay!"

At a OHL game I heard "Hey ref, raise your hand if you rode the short bus". The funny thing was about a half dozen fans rose their hand as well. Really funny.
