Topic: Ball goes in one goal and pops out of the other

[sherwyn]

On a foosball table, I once saw a shot whereby the ball went into one of the goal posts and popped out the other goal post (on the opposite end of the table).  Did this really happen, or did my eyes deceive me ?

Has anyone else experienced this ?

[Alan Cribbs]

Yes.
It happened quite frequently on RP tables back in the 80's.

I have personally made this happen on a Tornado back in the day but not on one of the newer tables. Perhaps the angle of the ramps is configured differently on the newer tables.

On a strong enough push or pull, TS tables would also do that.  They even installed small pieces of 1x1 on the ramp to help keep that from happening.

That should add one point to your team and take away one from your opponent

It wasn't all that uncommon on old Tournament soccer tables, but the best one I ever say was on an old Garlando back in the early 70's. It went in the goal, out the other goal and all the way across the table into the original goal!

When I played back in the mid to late 70's (mainly Dynamo tables) we called it a Grand Slam. We would laugh and say more free play when this happened. Add a point to the shoot's side and started the next round of play for a goal.
