Only once that I can recall in my 8 years on my team.

We had a protruding screw head in the path of the chain, and that got entangled with the master link clip and popped it off.

This ONLY happened as a result of a quick replacement between matches of the screw with one with a non-countersunk head which was the only one available in the 5 seconds we had to put the screw back and get back in the game.

Lessons learned...
