Game day. Harvey was to be a hockey referee.
He loved his team. Got to know every player. If not by name, by number. He cheered on excellent performance. Yelled and swore when improvement was needed.
Game started. Harvey followed the puck, twisting his body in awkward angles. Pendulum legs swung over one another. Neck stretched crane-like whenever a goal was disputed. Missed opportunities and penalties had him reach boiling point.
The buzzer rang. Timeout!
Pizza was ready for quick pickup from the oven.
So Harvey could return to his recliner for the rest of the game on TV.
