My blood pressure reading showed the following numbers:
SYS: 099
DIA: 067
Pulse: 61
Is this unusually low? Some foolish young girl was tossing a croquet ball in the air yesterday as I bent over to pick something off the ground and it hit me in the back of the head...is this playing a factor in the BP level? Serious answers only please.

That's a great blood pressure, unless you usually run high.
There's something called "relative hypotension", which means that if your body is used to seeing high blood pressure and it drops into a low-normal range, you could become symptomatic.
If you have chest pain, shortness of breath or severe fatigue, I'd be concerned. Otherwise, that blood pressure is excellent.

It's perfect healthy if you measure BP at sleeping position, but it's low if you measure when sitting or standing. The playing has no affect BP. Should have treatment immediately if BP is under 50 or low 90s. Caffein, salty and spicy foods can easy pump BP a little bit higher.

You are considered, hypotensive. Usually very healthy patients are able to display low bp's and pulse/breath rates.
Your fine. You write logically and seem coherent so I wouldn't dx you as having a neuro disorder. Was it a good game?

Not unusually low for me, but for you? See a doctor if you are worried. BP does fluctuate, depending on certain things. How do you feel?

No, that's not terribly low, and the fact that you're awake and working the keyboard suggests your brain is being adequately perfused.
