So. What is the funniest/most annoying combo you've ever seen in booster draft? Mine would be when my King (Uzziah, I think) got removed from the game because he contracted leprosy (part of his game text).
What about the rest of you?

Funniest thing I ever saw was as a judge.
One person had been using Ship to Cyprus (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Ship_to_Cyprus_(Ap)) to great effect at the tournament, and he went in for a rescue in a later game. Gets blocked by Leviathan (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Leviathan_(Pa)). Here is how that conversation went:
Blocker: I use Leviathan! Beefcake, beefcake!
Attacker: My initiative? I'll play Ship to Cyprus. *picks up deck*
Me: *walking by* NO.
Whole table: :o
Me: *points to the text on Leviathan*
Attacker: ??? ... WHAT?!
Whole table: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Then, that same tournament, same person blocks with Leviathan, which had been eating faces all game (as usual). Attacker gets very happy, and throws down Sword of the Lord (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Sword_of_the_Lord_(Ki)). Much rejoicing at the table is had.
The blocker's turn is next.
He throws down a second Leviathan.
Adding second story as the most annoying thing I did in booster to someone.
I had pulled the old Judges tin, and was playing at a table with someone who hated my Judges T2 offense. I attacked him with <Random Angel> (a smaller one, ability didn't matter). He blocked with a beefcake, thinking I didn't have silver support.
I only had one silver enhancement...Three Angels (http://redemption.wikia.com/wiki/Three_Angels_(Pa)). Banded both AutO and AwSN into battle, D2, brought some friends to the fight, got the judges I needed out of the deck, and his face was PRICELESS.
Fun note: The attacker in story 1 and the defender in story 2 are the same person ;) He gets all sorts of bad things happening to him in booster.

Nice! Gotta love little things like that... Sometimes, I'd play booster just for the laughs from it.

This one happened at a recent tournament I attended.
Attacker goes out with a strong Hero who had been picking up LS all game, (can't recall exactly who it was).
Defender blocks with a Crimson EC and plays Isaac Deceived forcing the attacker to attack with a small Hero from someone else's territory (and obviously a brigade the attacker wasn't using).
Attacker plays Belt of Truth (K) to negate Isaac Deceived.
Defender... :o

This deck (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/complete-decks/the-worst-deck-to-ever-place-north-east-regionals-booster-2nd-place/) winning anything was the funniest thing to happen to me in booster. Especially when I had this (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/redemption-card-play/booster-draft-deck/) crazy good booster deck that couldn't win a tournament.
-
2nd seal pulled everyone in and I was there with JiP to play off lots wife. I had no EC's to be brought in.
-
KoalaKing got Job and Dust and Ashes one in booster.
-
He throws down a second Leviathan.
99% sure that was me.
-
Lot blocked by lot's daughters to play forbidden fruit. Comments, I have none.

I will still never forget seeing an Ananias and Sapphira band taken out by Deception Exposed.
