Johnny came in with only two days left and so he had to do all 12 tries in two days.

John Schmidt had to sweat Archer around 1:00 a.m. on the last day, trying to catch his 73.
There's kind of a funny story connected to that. I had been up by the front table and Bill came back to me and gave me Archer's sheet and said you finish up with Archer.
The sheet had 10 runs completed. Boxes for numbers and totals on the end. When Bill gave me the clipboard, the 11th run just had a 14 in the first box and no total on the end. I assumed that Archer had already run a rack and had just broken into the second rack. When he finished that rack, I announced 28. I did not realize that Bill had finished with attempt number 11. I was adding the 14 that Johnny got on attempt #11 to his run.
Using the extra 14, Johnny would have had a 69 when he missed, according to my figures, but in reality it was only a 55. We would have had to check the video if things had gone on a bit longer.
