Was having a game of one pocket last night. ONE POCKET. The game where you have ONE pocket to shoot into.
Well into the frame guy I was playing against started calling the pocket he was potting into. What a donut.
Would have been funny by itself till, laughing my head off, I fouled and then with ball in hand behind the head string the next shot he then played a ball into the middle bag instead of his pocket AND called it. I could of told him he was about to make a mistke again, but it was funnier not to.
I admit, the way I tell it doesn't quite capture how amusing it is, or how much of a prat he felt, but it was hilarious at the time.
Who's got some amusing stories then? Post your favorite pool bloopers here.

I loved the look on Earl Strickland's face when he shot the two-ball, and was then reminded by the referee that the one-ball was still on the table!

this one is a doug gordon classic.
it was when he was announcing players to their tables and the players in question were andy mistry and marcus hurrion.
anyway it went like this, just read it out to yourselves and you will get it
'CAN A MYSTERY GO TO TABLE 10 AND CAN MARCUS HURRY ON TO TABLE 8'
YOU REALLY HAD TO BE THERE

I remember beating a drunk guy in my league one night, 7-0 and he had the audacity to say he could have beat me 7-0 if he really wanted to. I could have just shrugged it off, but I thought I would play along with him. So I took all the balls out and randomly scattered them on the table and gave him cue ball in hand to clear them up.
He missed the first ball....nuff said.....
I've never seen him back at our league!
