My personal favoraite is when the seller says this is in best playing cue they have ever had.
I alwys think to mysefl WTF Why are you selling it then?
I guess we are all stupid...
I saw a guy play "lights out" one time. We were playing some partners one pocket really late one night and he after his shot, he couldn't believe the outcome and reacted by jabbing his cue straight up in the air tip first and unknowingly shattered the light above the table. Let me tell you, that was some funny $hit.
