my fave from years ago was when playing a crystal maze and some onlooker enquired;
"are you some sort of robot or something?" to which i quickly replied
"affirmative"!

My clear favourite has to be a similar one to QM's. "Why would you know that?", i clearly didnt bother gettin' into a conversation trying to explain to the moron, that to know a ruddy answer just might earn you more money.

i've had publicans follow me after leaving their pub (having had a pint and having won a modest sum) and on to the next pub to (very obviously) spy on whatever dastardly techniques i've been using to fiddle the machines.

Playing Word Up you get used to people saying "You've got 'SET' in the left hand corner" - someone topped this last week, saying "Are you allowed sports words ? 'Cos if you are, you've got NFL."

I've had friendly (but potentially intimidating) drunks come up to
point out CARDS or something when I'm trying to get rid of vowels. Being a pathetic coward, I'm tempted to take it

Recently one guy stood behind me repeating "How DID you spot that? Wow!" over and over. Bear in mind I'm a total Hacker and rarely get words over 100 points... it really is the only game that attracts nutters

Was at a gig a few months ago with a £25 extreme, and as i managed to nudge trick the JP(only ever managed to do it twice) just as i was nudging the JP in i was told "there is only ever one winner". it repeated too which made it even more funny for me as then he came out with "i bet it cost you more than that to win though"
