My favorite rack boy was at the Duke Sport Shop in Durham, NC, a small room right off Five Points. He had a stump for an arm, and was a dead ringer for Nikita Khrushchev, right down to the mole on his nose.

That was a strange pool room in many ways. It had a big clock above the bar that ran backwards, and a talking mynah bird whose only words were "YOUR MAMMY!", which greeted everyone who walked in the door.

Where I grew up, the ‘rack boy’ also held down the cigar store/magazine stand’s front counter/cash register, and thus got a lot of exercise. The shout of “RACK” soon brought him running! He wore a change apron, and the winner of our five & nine ring game would throw him a dime as he racked.

Six of my young guys rented a Time Share for $400 week during the BCA Event. It was about a mile away from the Westgate. It had all the beds for six and a full kitchen etc. Apparently Time Share rentals are much cheaper than AB&B rentals.

Hilton seems to have a bunch of such properties that it is trying to sell. There is one in Orlando just north of the Caribe Royale. I looked for one in Vegas but couldn't find one cheap and late. The last time I stayed in one, it was cheaper than the casino hotel by a lot and had three bedrooms. (You also didn't want to walk around in your bare feet. :eek: ) I avoided the sales-pitch meeting.
