Don't fret, it was just a Joss. LOL
Most people who think they have original Balabushkas, don't.
If this guy was dumb enough to destroy the cue, I'm guessin he's dumb enough to not know the difference.

Hi all,
Today I just heard from friend of mine that one of his friends just smashed a Balabushka and broke it into pieces. That guys got the cue as gift but he treated like it was like any cue you could find on any pool hall. He already smashed it couple times when he got angry after missing a shot and stuff like that. I asked my friend to bring the remaining of the cue to me. If it is possible, I will take some pictures but I just want to spread out the sad news to everyone who loves pool and cues, especially Balabushka cues.
People with that kind of anger management issues should be banned from owning anything of value.

I was at a cuemakers shop one time and he showed me a bushka that was broken in two in the butt. The guy apparently was playing with it for league and a fight broke out and he used the cue to defend himself. Im trying to remember which cuemaker this was. This was over 10 years ago but im about positive it was Dennis Searing who was showing me this cue and telling me the story. He said when he got the cue it had blood on it and it broke his heart to see the cue that way.
Anybody who treats ANY cue like that should just take up another sport
