Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
John Isner and Nicolas Mahut are currently at 6-4,3-6,6-7,7-6,39-38.
How does one get a 3-6 set? Wouldn't you stop at 3-5? And what about the 6-7/7-6 sets? I thought you had to win by two.

No, you have to reach 6.
And what about the 6-7/7-6 sets? I thought you had to win by two.
That indicates a set that was won by a tiebreak. They reached 6-6 and then had to play the tiebreak.
They reached 6-6 and then had to play the tiebreak.
Yeah, at Wimbledon you can tiebreak except in the fifth set.
eta: Although, theoretically, the tiebreak can last forever, since you have to win by two points. And any game can last forever, since you have to win by two points. So there's a lot of eternity in tennis.
Oooh something's happening. Talking is occurring.
Wow, they're threatening to stop for the day. Isner wants to keep going, Mahut wants to stop. The audience wants them to keep going.
Oooh something's happening. Talking is occurring.
Will they settle it with rock, paper, scissors?
If they call it tonight when will it restart tomorrow?
Suspended at 59-59.
As a person in London, I can say it is pretty dark.
Oh! And they're done!
