Lang's penalty - called from on high

[pbmax]

I don't recall ever hearing of an official up in a booth calling down to the zebras on the field to call a penalty during a game before. If this indeed happened I hope McCarthy complains to NY big time.

I think the ref Lang is speaking about is referring to 'up there, as in upstairs, in the executive suites, where people like the work-a-day man-ref would not play their trade'.

Does anyone else hear something like a whistle at precisely the moment before 1 second clicks on the You Tube video? Because that is what I remember, but it is not followed by the obvious, multiple whistles at 3 seconds?
