Yes this is true i believe they have been open for a few months now. I talked to Whitey about a month ago and he told me to come down sometime.

Yeah it is Whitey is a good guy and a great player. I am pretty sure that they did have to down size though.

If you hear anymore could you post a update?It's nice to hear of a pool room making a come back.It seems we hear of them closing more so than opening so this is a nice change!

If my memory serves me correct, he told me he downsized and opened up a banquet center in part of the building.

I really like that place. When it first opened, along with a big bunch of bar tables he had several 9 ft's, and 2 snooker tables.. I think. Then he added a stage for bands and lost a few 9 ft tables and now????

Diversify and survive seems to be the necessary tactics.

Great burgers and fries at Whiteys and he's a good guy.

if my information was correct he shut the kitchen down permanently though.
