There's nothing nicer than a good table, and nothing more frustrating than a lousy one. I totally sympathize with your frustration!!
Thanks, I was afraid of that! Wish my instinct had been a little quicker on this one..figures that the second time around they make both of the tech shots and eventually end up cutting a 15 point deficit to 3 and I'm sitting there thinking to myself "please don't let that extra foul shot determine the outcome"...ended up being like a 9 pt game, so it didn't...yeah the table was brutal, pre-game I go over to check the book at like 11 mins and there is no scorer to be seen anywhere (probably at the concession stand), the visiting scorer has the official book and is writing the home team name/numbers in HIS book even though his team's names/numbers/starters are not in the official book yet!!! It was a bit unusual last night around here due to a snow storm we were starting about an hour late (turned my 1hr drive into 3 hrs), so they were only given 15 mins for warmups where it usually would be 20..so I was ready to be a little lenient as far as having everything in by 10, but come on!! I had to physically take the official book from this guy and tell the guy who was doing the announcing to write the numbers/starters from the visiting team into the official book so I could have a look...should've known it was gonna be a long night...
