grue,

You joke, but meteorite impacts causing large igneous provinces on the opposite side of the planet might actually be a thing.

(Uluru and Meteor Crater are provably not an example of this, though, for several reasons: they aren’t antipodes of each other, Uluru is five orders of magnitude older, and the phenomenon I mentioned would’ve been caused by way, way bigger impacts.)
