I have never seen such interesting and detailed photos.

A collection of these would make an EXCELLENT coffee table book. I'm serious. I have seen it done with diners, cats, doorways. Why not pool rooms around the world?

Keep 'em coming! Best thread of the year for me! :)

I thought of that last night, wouldn't it be incredible to travel the world, take photos and chronicle the stories behind all these great pool halls.

Heck yeah. I love this thread.

Here's my contribution. I'll have more later. This is Cue Club in Las Vegas.

I wish I took a picture inside that Cue Club late one night. Everybody was smoking water pipes. I had never seen that before. :o

Someone on this thread made mention of a table book. I think you should pursue it. Just make sure you get permission from the artist (photographer) and/or give credit on reference page. as well get some legal advise, if you are so inclined to publish a book of pics. My next post is a link. This pic is a sample of the event.

Getta Cue

This was a fundraiser for UC Davis Breast Cancer Research. Andiamo Sports promoted the event with the Sacramento Kings and Monarchs. It raised over 300K. It was held at the Tsakopoulos Gallery in Downtown Sacramento. I was fortunate enough to be the tournament director. The high school students in white shirts were table attendants for the pro basketball players and the contributors. We all had a great time. Thought you may enjoy

Here is the link for all the photos - http://www.sacvibe.com/Gallery/100404 Cueitup/index.html
 
Anyone else see the irony of a commercial for white bread on the side of a "Colored Only" billiard hall?

Wilt Chamberlain's California home table back in 1972. Who needs a bridge anyway? :)

This is what used to be called Paradise Pool Room in Denver, Colorado. It has been around for many years. Today, it is called "Hank's."
