I was waiting for my break on my table, and my opponent put the rack in place and walked away from the foot of the table.
I guess around 20 seconds or so had passed, and as I set up for the break, the head ball rolled forward noticeably.
Usually if it occurs, it happens immediately, so we both were startled and looked at each other, and briefly discussed whether a poltergeist was in the room. It was a little freaky, and neither of us had seen that happen so late.
The head ball was on the spot, and the spot is maybe two years old, but not pitted in any obvious way. The table racks well, with no apparent head ball roll off problems when racking.
Have you seen such a late roll off? What could cause it? (There is a ceiling fan that's on all the time, but it's toward the head of the table and not set to gale force strength.)
