one time we did get a flat tire on the way home. I managed to coax the car into a gas station so it could be fixed. I called the house to assure the sisters that the game hadn’t gone into overtime and we would be home shortly. On another occasion, I drove the team through a bad snowstorm. When we got to the game, we learned that the referees couldn’t make it. I offered to serve as a replacement. Both teams agreed, and we had the match. I can’t imagine something like that happening today.
