Justin Bergman is on a mission

Great news! I remember when Tony Ellin started playing every event he could, including regionals. He was in tournament action every week. That's when he made it to the US Open finals against Earl. Sad his life was cut short. He would have won at least one Open and who knows how many others.
Yeah, Tony was one hell of a player who had a very big break. He was probably never a top five player, but often a top ten. I got to know him during his PBT days and enjoyed his company. He is sorely missed.

My first Gold Crown refurbish

Looks good.... I corn blasted mine, took 45 minutes, then a very light sanding and stain and clear coated, took max 4 hrs to do it all, other than driving to the corn blast man. The pocket Staples showed me this was likely not in a pool room it's entire life and the top rails are not worn at all. Enjoy.
I can only speak for the last 15 or 20 years and it was not in a pool hall. It was in Meucci Cues' show room. They are remodeling and needed the space.

Advice Request - Benefit Tournament - Cancer Treatment Funding

Hello AZB, one of my best friends has found out his wife has an aggressive form of Mouth Cancer. They have been dealing with this for about a year, they had a Go-Fund me done & between treatment costs etc, that's gone. There was some improvements, but the last scans they did were not positive, and they are being told the ONLY treatment options at this point are very expensive. My goal is to put on a benefit tournament for them. (They are wonderful people, and would do anything for those around them). He's been a great friend and we have played together for several years, in all kinds of leagues etc.

I've reached out to many of the local League operators & folks involved in our scene. Our Biggest venue is FOE in Murray UT & we are planning to set something up there June 27th. This will be my first event of this nature, and I'm trying to grow this as big as possible for them. Any recommendations/advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you AZB in advance!
