There was a place in Redding, CA that had a 7 foot valley, that the rubber was loose at the foot of the table. Apparently it had come loose at the two points where rackers would grab the rails to stand up from retrieving the balls. It was loose for just about a foot at either side of the foot rail. Where the rubber was loose a ball would do just the opposite of what you would expect. A ball that should open up would back up and vise versa. Not just a little but a lot.
They had a weekly tournament and it was funny as hell watching the experienced players that were new to the tournament and did not check the rails before playing.
