Had a couple of nail-biting finishes already in 2016. Last night, my team at Walsh's won by five points over Rockin Crepes. Two weeks ago, BWW Gaithersburg won by eight points in a brutal game over Stadium Cafe. Can anyone recall if there's been a team win by less than five points in Spotlight? Hard to imagine it getting any closer or more competitive, but I was curious.
I don't know about Spotlight, but the record for the closest win ever for any premium game--and indeed the closest win possible for any premium game--was set by Sullivan's Laurel over Inside Out in Madison, AL on May 19, 2009. On the surface, it looked like they tied at 60,285, but Sullivan's was ranked #1 because when you added up the top six scores for each team, Sullivan's combined score before averaging was a single point higher. Thus, Sullivan's won the game by 1/6 of a point. Don Denton's record for that game is here:
