What's the funniest thing you have seen in pool?

Uh, does anyone else get what's so funny about headlights turning on? Yeah it's funny the guy went outside and was looking thru the window, but what's the big deal about car headlights turning on? :confused:

I'm guessing that he was in a money game and was stuck with a really tough shot on the money ball so he proceeded to slowly make his way to his car (to leave) while making it look like he was eyeing the shot from different distances.

Just what I made of it.
 
just for looks

I just beat my buddy 10 9-ball games in a row and finally won one. He begins to take out his break cue and put it together.

I asked him, "What's that?"

He said, "My break cue, why?."

I replied, "Well, the way you play, I just thought you carried that around for looks."

One minute later after a safety he grabs his jump cue out and starts putting it together. I asked him again, "What's that?"

He looks at me irritably gets ready to shoot and says, "My jump cue, why?"

As soon as he missed the shot, I simply replied, " Oh, nothing."
 
The Glove!

I just remembered this one.

August 2004, Classic Billiards in Joliet (Crest Hill), IL.

We were in the pool hall and this guy like 28 years old comes in and pulls out one of those beer cues from a Spencer Gifts Stores. He gets all the balls set on the table and then goes back to his plastic case and pulls out...I kid you not...a knitted winter glove. Yes, the kind someone's grandma makes. We all laugh about it as quiet as was possible.His shooting was fair, but not great.

The funniest thing was everyone thought he was hustling, and no one would play him. They were all like, "I'm not getting huslted by something this obvious, because the rest of you will never let me live it down if he kicks my butt."

To this day I still think he was just a silly person trying to be like someone on TV.

Just what I made of it.[/QUOTE it depends on the pool halls that you frequent......most i have been to have very few windows..but this one i am thinking of has all 4ft.x8ft.glass windows across the front of it...they only have parking for about 10 cars in front of the place...when a car pulls in to park the headlights light up the whole place ..when you park your vehicle is about 5 feet from the glass...so as the poster was saying this guy goes out and puts his lights on ..i can imagine it happening at this particular pool hall and lighting the place up.........

SOUNDS LIKE LOTS OF ACTION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Read This!

a group of newbies walk in, get some balls from the counter and walk over to the last table over in the back right corner.. they bat balls around for a few minutes. their frustrations increase as no one makes a single shot.. literally about 10 minutes later, they realize that the table has no pockets!!! (it's a 3-cushion table).. i swear it was 10 minutes!! i was on the other side of the room laughing my ass off.. all the while, i'm sittin there thinking, "what the hell were they aiming at?!" hahaha.
 
I thought it was pretty cute how the announcer at the IPT KOH Finals said, "Let's get ready to Raaaacccckkkkk Emmmmm!" instead of Let's get ready to rumble.

It was also hysterical when Sigel said, "How's my GLI now?"
