I guess you and I are the only ones this has ever happened to, Dan. It's happened to me at least two or three times, both on the winning and losing ends.

What's to stop somebody from checking if they have the scales blocked off before they have a heads-up race and taking out a hundred or so pounds before they go up to the lanes?
