Hey Folks, I'm coming home soon and it has always been a dream of mine to have a pool table in my house. I have a nice 3 bedroom ranch house in Texas and the only way for me to have a pool table is to partially convert the garage. Besides the cost of doing this I REALLY do not want to give up my garage nor do I care to accumulate more debt by putting an addition onto the house.
Orrrrrr I can put a nice 9 footer in the living room? I am 26 and single. Right now it would not be a problem. Obviously later when I have a family we would move to a bigger house anyway. In your opinion is this too tacky or bachelor esque'? I could easily turn either the master bedroom or one of the spare bedrooms into the new "living room". This would only be temporary until I move to a bigger house in the future.
Any thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, John

Current fire code says you cannot have a 9' pool table in your living room. Also, it states you cannot drink beer while playing on your table if it were to be in the living room. I believe there is a large fine if you are caught with a table in the middle of your living room. I would contact the current Sherrifs Dept and turn yourself in IMMEDIATELY for even having such thoughts....Shame on you!
