The final score of this barn-burner? 10-8.

Intent with this response is not in order to "outdo" the poster, with whom I truly sympathize re. 1:10 min. games.
Paid my way through college doing those kinds of games, except back then we had real jump balls. 1:10 woulda been a very short game back then. Closer to 2:00 was quite common. Happy for A-P arrow!
