Hey all,
Just wondering what the most interesting spare leave you've ever seen? It could be something you left or something someone else did.
I've seen some crazy stuff, but some of the craziest are the 1-2-4-5-8-10 (righty), 3-4-5-6-7-8-9 (righty) and 5-7-8-10 (righty as well).
I also saw someone leave the 2-8 and a messenger slid across and stood up in the middle of the two for a 3 pin sleeper!

Once saw the 5-8-7-10. Chris Barnes left the 5-7-10 on a National TV promo. He also had a second one and that one had a late falling 8 pin.

The other day I left a 1-7-10 and picked it up. I had never left it before so my jaw dropped when I threw a pocket shot and that was left.

Sorry but if your ball doesn't touch the headpin it wasn't a pocket hit.
today in practice I left the 6 - 4 - 8 - 9

Sorry guys I have to agree with J Anderson on this one.
If your ball truly hit the pocket or even the 1 pin it had to fall over. Unless you were throwing a 6 lb ball I just can't imagine seeing someone hit the pocket and the 1 pin stay up. I guess you would know since you were there but that is by far the stragest thing I have ever heard. Whatever ball that was I would go out back and kindly place it in the dumpster :)

Truo It hit the pocket the 1 pin fell over and came back up because another pin hit it. Not the balls fault a stroke of bad luck. it had a spasm or something.
