When I was recovering from the hit and getting us going around the track again, I swung left, which whapped three other refs (including Stu!
) in the face.
Moral of the story? Refs don't make good walls.
If anyone wants to find it, it was at a match at BMR, although I have no idea which match it was. I feel that there shouldn't be any penalty for stuff like this since if FIRST was really concerned about extra-field-ular interactions they would have put solid lexan clad high walls all the way down the field, or put tape lines around the field over which no one can cross when a match is in play.
