Tennis uses multiples of 15, but only up to 45, calls other points weird names, then closes a set, which has to be repeated at least 6 times for a separate scoring, with said scoring also needing to be repeated AT LEAST 3 more times, but can be dragged out ad infinitum.

Even table tennis has the decency of using a straight scoring system where 11 points wins a set and 2 sets wins the match.

    They also replace the 0 with the word love. When the score is 15-0, the announcer says 15 - love.

      It’s because love means nothing to a tennis player.

      Sorry my coach loved that joke.
