Referree clothes = scary? Well, I guess it depends on your focus.
Somehow, though, I really don’t think a boggart would turn into a ref in front of Edith. Some of the other kids, yeah, especially the boys, but not Edith.
Boggarts (I think I have the name right) were in the Harry Potter books. Shape-shifting creatures that like living in dark, cozy places, like cabinets - they turn into your greatest fear. In the book, it took the form of a giant spider for one kid, a mummy for another., etc…
BTW, speaking of mummies, etc… I really miss the monsters v. space aliens football game this year. Just being cautious, Bill, or did that movie studio decide to be territorial? Too bad, really… You weren’t first, but you were there before them!
She was just dissing the ref. But I like the shape-shifting angle. I’ll use that when CNN calls for an explanation.
I’m glad you remembered the Halloween “Space Alien vs Monsters” strips. After that movie was made, I figured people would think I was ripping off the movie. Maybe I’ll do it again next year.
Maybe you could change it up a little, have a Monsters v. Space Aliens cookout and baseball game. Sometime between July 4th and the MLB All-Star Game. Some of the nonsense since the All-Star Tie deserves the surreal treatment. Winner gets to be home team in the Halloween game!

Ah, sarcasm! Good stuff. After all referees are pretty scary since they seem to be getting a lot of calls wrong lately…

In the “B.C”,“Wizard of Id”, and “Cleats” strips anything from the 21st Century AD can show up in them.

Edith is the Goaler
Referees award penalty kicks
Goalers think referees can be very scary sort of like the brainless walking
Before my wifes good cooking I was the goaler on my team so I know of what I mumble
