Just want to clarify for myself, what are the different situations that reverse the PA? And when should the table reverse the arrow?

golfdesigner, you sure left to open for a lot of strange comments by saying PA. :)

Okay, Okay, I know what you mean, let's try the Possession Arrow.

The AP arrow should be reversed when an AP throw-in is completed successfully or when the inbounding team violates. Do not let the table reverse it until one of these two things happen. Table chimps have a habit of reversing it right when you hand the ball to the inbounder, or ever prior to that. If they do, tell them to knock it off or you will give all their bananas to the howler monkeys.

Also, at halftime, you reverse the arrow (or direct a table chimp to do so) on the table to reflect the fact that the teams change ends.

Table chimps? Jeez, Mark, you're managing to get everyone today!

BTW, I agree on "reversing" the arrow - SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO annoying!
