Best duel ever. XD (What is it with bests recently? )

From "Pistols at Dawn: History of Duelling."


Lenfant and Melfont... quarelled over a game of billiards. They drew lots to determine who would be the first to throw the red ball at his opponent's head. Melfont won and, such was the power and the accuracy of his throw that the ball hit Lenfant's forehead and killed him outright.

And here I thought that billiard balls were logically, 'common sense' dangerous? ..by default.. Oh boy, poor he who lost! Those balls are hard! *chuckle* Weird duel though!

Weird is an understatement. XD
