The Demise Of An Officials Shirt


TY MCDONALD
"The Ironer"


Ty's Shirt
"The Ironee"

One of the greatest joys that a parent can have is watching their child grow up into maturity and that privilege has been mine this spring season.  My son, Ty, has been officiating full time this spring and we have had a great time together!  Its a joy to see you son excel at something both of you love.

Along with the joys of watching your son mature and grow up, there are also those moments that are fun and hilarious to watch.  We had just that moment last week at the women's Junior College National Tournament in Tyler, Texas.  Each of the officials got their maroon shirts for the week and when Ty woke up the first morning of the tournament he decided that his dry-fit shirt was wrinkled and needed to be ironed.

Alas, he had never learned that you don't put a hot iron on a dry-fit shirt.  Pictured above is the result...

Such are the joys of a father watching his son grow into maturity!

We should start an Ironing 101 class! Ty can teach it since he now knows not to do that again.
