The other team informed me as soon as I got there that the second table (we use two tables every time), was missing the eightball. Someone had stole it earlier in the week!
There is only two tables in this bar, so I stood there stunned, thinking, "Uh, we will be here ALL night trying to play all our matches on one table!"
I called one of my teammates and she had already left the house (she had a set of balls at her house, but was already half way away).
Another option was to "borrow" an 8ball from another bar down the street. They had already called and that was an option.
Then they said, "Well, we do have an extra ball. It's just not an 8ball."
"You do?"
It's an extra 4 ball. And we colored in the "4" with a black marker to indicate it's "the 8ball" not the 4 ball.
"Well heck, that will work!"
I admit it was tricky at times that night if you were solids, but not one person made the 4 (I mean 8 ball) out of turn.
I love solutions!
