Wake Up Call: The real tragedy is, the cue ball is also in there
Apr 25, 2011, 9:00 AM EDT
So now we know that soccer, billiards and drinking don’t mix. Tenby AFC, a soccer team of the Pembrokeshire (Wales) 1st Division, was having a little end-of-the-season party when one of the players, well … look, who hasn’t at one time or another ended up with a pool cue up their butt?
A friend said: “It was a bit of horseplay that went seriously wrong. We’d all had a few drinks when one of the lads did a moonie. A player picked up a pool cue and it all went wrong from there.”
His Tenby AFC teammate, 29, was arrested in St Clears, Carmarthenshire, but was released without charge.
In Wales, as long as you call your shot, it’s legal.

ABOUT LAST NIGHT
Sometime after 11 p.m. a 51-year-old Portland man, apparently disgruntled by the shortage of scantily clad females in attendance, attacked the Girls Gone Wild bus and broke off both rear-view mirrors. …
- And the Canadiens lead the series 3 games to 2 … wait, what?
- Tim Lincecum basically tells Bud Selig to take his playoff expansion plan and shove it.
- Each NFL team’s single best and worst draft picks of all time.

TODAY IN MARK TRAIL …
And so begins the plot to Rambo IV.
