Has an AFL game ever ended 117-38?
Exactly once. On June 7, 1909, Melbourne beat Geelong 117-38, and no AFL game before or since has ended that way. When it happened it was a scorigami, the first 117-38 in league history.
That makes 117-38 the 3836th most common final score out of 6,607 that have ever occurred in AFL. One point away, 118-38 has happened never and 117-39 has happened never.
