Thank goodness this controversial and overzealous referee was not assigned to the tournament!

Let me remind the overzealous one of Rule 3-1-1 (pg. 13):

"The referee's uniform consists of a short-sleeved knit shirt, with alternating black and white 1-inch stripes or an event provided shirt common to all officials at the event, full-length black trousers, black belt (if worn), black socks and black wrestling/gym shoes without colored highlights." (emphasis added)

If you do not choose to follow the rules why would you expect the coaches, athletes, or spectators to follow the rules?
