I'll avoid putting the ridiculously deep ES Secondary set into play on Sunday. For your health. Any replacement requests?

Maybe not put in play... but any chance there is a link to some pron of this truly beautiful high denom set? Don't believe I have had the privilege of viewing these before!! WOW!!
 
Back when "Star Wars" wasn't "A New Hope," Han shot first, and every kid wanted to be a Jedi, I lived a block away from a department store that had just been purchased by Meijer. During the transition, my best friend and I found new cool shit in their dumpsters every day: a couple cases of silly string, several Stretch Armstrongs (we sacrificed one to see what was inside), and much more.

One of the more mundane finds was a bunch of old fluorescent light bulbs - the long tubes that are still pretty widespread today. Of course, we immediately decided that this was the closest thing to a real lightsaber that we would ever find, and we decided to recreate the Vader vs. Kenobi battle.

Upon first impact, the bulb in my hands exploded. Luckily my hands and face were spared, but a big chunk made a one-inch gash in my left thigh that required three stitches to close.

Forty years later, I still have the scar.
 
Tore my ACL and meniscus.... at a lacrosse coaching clinic. They put us through the drills to show the kids. Last drill of the night was a flag football/ultimate frisbee hybrid to show us how short passes are more effective. I jumped to catch the first score of the game and came down in the bleachers. bottom half of my leg stopped moving, top didn't. 7.5 months out of surgery and I've been cleared to return to beer league hockey in January. The only upside is that since it happened at a US lacrosse sponsored event, they picked up the tab.
 
I was sweeping in my garage last year and walked under a shelf while bent over. Stood up and scalped myself like an idiot on the corner of a 2*4. Blood everywhere. Felt so dumb. I got a bunch of stitches that day. Happy Easter.

Prior to that as a teenager I got stitches in my head while having an acorn/crab apple battle royale with neighborhood kids and I fell out the trap door of a treehouse and hit my head on the way out.

I've had a lot of head wounds.
 
Was trying my shoe, sneezed and pulled a muscle in my back. This was about 15 years ago.
 
celebrating an eagle from a greenside bunker and sprained my ankle pretty badly...effectively ending my golf season. fun.
 
Boardercross training, last run before lunch break, I was alone on the slope but I messed my olie on the fist kick = humerus broken.
 
I knocked a bunch of hunting tip arrowheads off a shelf. Caught them on the way down.
Eye-hand coordination 10/10
Brain-hand coordination 0/10
Bonus points: I don't hunt.
