Episode Notes On 2025's "Blabbin' In the Bluegrass" grand finale, I'm privileged to welcome two tremendous talents who help to make possible many of the athletics we enjoy on a regular basis . . .one of them is 84 years of age, and still actively officiating!! He is Henderson's Billy T. Haynes, who maintains a strong refereeing presence in high school basketball and volleyball, and even spent 22 years handling college basketball at the NCAA Division I level! Don't miss out on numerous stories of the players involved in games he called, and special friendships he formed through the years with coaches such as the late Joe B. Hall. Joining Billy is Mrs. Stacey Howell, a veteran volleyball official who met Billy during her coaching days. She describes her special bond with Billy, and what she believes to be his most commendable qualities as a referee. So treat yourself to plenty of grins and giggles, and more fun than the law should allow!! Find out more at https://blabbin-in-the-bluegrassblabbi.pinecast.co
