Double Bass End Pin Fell Out = cracked bass

Just thought I would pass this along.........
My end pin fell out while carrying my bass in to a rehearsal tonite ........and caught on a storm drain..........sounded like a branch broke off a tree.........I have a big 3" crack open /pushed in on the bottom of my bass......So a word to the wise....
Make sure your end pin is tight before transporting.
