How Would You Handle Will Ferrell Showing Up To Ref Your Kid's Soccer Game?

"Hey that's fucking Will Ferrell" - 11-year old boy, perplexed that the guy from ELF is about to referee his soccer game. 

"Hey you're Will Ferrell and you fucked us with that call in the second half. Get your head out of your ass my kids can't get any orange slices now because I take this all way too seriously." - 39-year old coach, bewildered that the guy from KICKING AND SCREAMING has left him both kicking and also screaming.

Los Angeles is a different planet as far as I'm concerned. All the people from our screens drop their guises and become 3D figures who have real lives outside of eating condor egg omelets and deciding the future of the world. I don't know how I'd handle Will Ferrell showing up with his whistle and calling my game, but I imagine it'd go poorly. I'd try to get into a verbal altercation as he's known for from *checks notes* all of his roles and he'd very much not want to play along, making me look like a complete jackass. Which I already do well enough without the help of anyone else, thank you very much. Getting ejected by Will Ferrell would be an all time youth sports coaching moment though so I'd have no choice but to give him the whatfor and deal with the many letters and angry phone calls from parents league wide. So basically that coach pictured above who looks ready to swing on Frank the Tank at the drop of a hat.
