What is the most unusual "leave" you've ever had/seen in bowling?

Question

A friend of mine swears that he once saw somebody (a little kid) leave the 2-3. Also he claims to have seen somebody leave the 1 pin (and on another occasion the 1-5).

Answer 1

Just saw a 7-9-10 left yesterday by a bowler "palming" a six pound ball with two fingers and left that messy split due to the ball deflecting and being too light to scatter the other pins into the remainder on the pindeck.

Answer 2

idk, i've seen some crazy ones over the years, but not sure off-hand.  my dad left like 5 pins the other day, all seperated....  I know he left the head pin, cuz it wasn't considered a split, but not sure what other pins he left...  I think it was the 1, 10, 7, 5, 8 or something equally wierd....

Answer 3

i have left the 1-5 don't know how it happened but it did - i saw the 5-7-10 made too - it was sweet
