Spotting Stories: What are some of the Craziest Spots/Most Complicated you have seen?

I've heard of Tony Watson giving up some outlandish spots. I have heard of him playing where you make a good hit you win, he has played using his toes as a bridge and as of late giving up 7 games in a race to 10
 
I played against little goose in tampa one time. We played just about every game and then we started playing one handed, then no stroking allowed, then you have to run around the table one time and get down and shoot immediately no stroking allowed (try it out some, you wont make a ball hardly), shoot no looking at the shot allowed plus a bunch more strange games. Then we got done and we proceeded to play Galaga for the dough, then Street Fighter II, then flip coins, then liars poker, then pitch coins. I think me and him tried each other out a ton of ways with ol TR staking him on alot of the games.

In another pool room we use to put a cockroach into a beer cup, shook it up and flipped it over. Four guys would bet on which way it would run with tape marking directions. Closest to the direction won the cheese. It was a helluva time chasing that little bug to make sure we could play again. That same room we would bet on the color of the the next car that would turn past this wall where u couldnt see the road leading up to the wall (white, silver and black got the cheese mostly).

I gave a guy the handspan once at the old harley bryants rack and que in jacksonville. The guy played about the 5 out under me but was like 6-5 with hands that were enormous. Palming a basketball was no problem at all for this guy. Played correctly, where you play position to get close to the next ball only, this spot is huge, especially for a guy with hands like shaquille oneal. This guy turned into a run out machine with this spot and ran 4-5 racks on me in some sets. I ended up beating him but not easily thats for sure.

Ive seen a guy spit the ball of his mouth and run the hell out. (roadman).

Another time ive seen a guy bet he could pee across the hood of a big ass SUV. He beered up and cleared the hood easily. He claimed he could do the hood of a econoline van with the right amount of budweiser in him.

There is a funny story about Chuck Raulston trying to drink a gallon of milk in less than an hr without puking. I think that was the bet. They posted up picks of it on that starksville pool halls site. Scooter and a bunch of the young road guys are there in the photos betting it up. Chuck lost that one.

You see some weird shiat if you hang out in the pool room long enough.
 
Joey Spaeth once spotted a guy playing 9-ball, where he won any time he made a good hit on the lowest ball in the table and drove something to the rail! Of course Joey got all the breaks and the guy was a novice. Joey kept him tied up pretty well where he seldom won a game. This was on an 8 footer with bucket pockets. Joey ran a lot of racks and was pretty good at sticking the cueball where the guy had to kick 2 or more rails almost every time he came to the table. It sounds like a huge spot, but it really wasn't that tough. Usually the only games the guy won was when Joey came up dry on the break and he even won some of those! lol
 
gave a chick 90 to 2 in one pocket about 5 years ago I guess

played for a good while......

I lost 88 to 2 after deciding to go off the air after all my hard work locking her up, I tried to spin the ball in and bust a cluster to finish it......


I finished it alright:frown:

didn't play for a dam week after that

Me and Shane Mcminn would play this girl huge spots all the time.

At first it was like 25:5 or something like that.....then I would give a little more and win, and Shane would find out and try to one up me.

B/f we played she said something to the effect of:

"Well Shane gave me 40 to 5 last time"

I decided to open my big a** mouth

"Hell girl you couldn't win 90 to 2 in one pocket"

dammit I still cant get over screwing the pooch.....I had it man in the palm of my dam hands.....and I let it slip away.

Oh well its a good story and was actually a pretty fun match.....it was brutal for her the whole match and peaches for me :eek:

By the end I was out of peaches and only had a lemon left......

I took a bite before I shot....puckered my lips and missed the shot lmfao

90:2 LOSER:confused: WTF!!!!!!!
