After reading through some of these, I couldn't help but post:
Cross-over game where both teams are out of the playoffs, but had a good enough record for the extra game. Visiting team Coach apparently got shafted by some formula that had a lower ranked team pushed ahead of him. He is a very accomplished basketball official and I have officiated with him in a rec flag football league.
His star QB is running a sweep and keeps it himself. As he get close to the tackler, he swings his hand striking the player in the helmet. I keep pace with the play, I drop my flag at the foul. As I'm finishing the play, I hear: "Eric, how can you call that....You know he didn't mean it!!"
