Meet Boo, The Adorable Five-Year-Old AAU Basketball Ref
From Vice Sports
You will see five-year-old Dealo Bellaphant-Brown in an extra small referee's uniform, running up and down the sidelines in time with the full-grown refs scraping together a little weekend cash; you'll see him raising his hands to signal twos and threes and pantomiming charging and blocking calls. A whistle sits clenched in his mouth but he knows not to blow it. His hair is a mass of springy curls erupting from his head. The nameplate across the back of the black and white striped uniform reads simply, "BOO."
