I was at The Inn tavern in Lynnwood, Wa, playing 9 ball, and a guy said he was going on the road, who should I stay away from?. A great player at the time named Mike Dooley said, open the phone book, anybody in there, stay away from them.
 
funny quotes

That is a good one. I know Mike,he has a lot of good one liners for the pool room. He was trying to get someone to gamble with him one time and yelled at him that "I've got so much money in my pocket right now,I had to walk through the door sideways to get in here!"

Yep, I can believe it.
 
I watched a guy come onto a hall one time with a FAT roll of dough and say he was looking for some big game action. We watched the guy play a couple of sets against a buster for some change... like $100 total and he did average. He wasn't a very good shot (Maybe a weak APA/TAP 6). He then puts his cue down and says he wants some real compitetion. We say we know a guy, but he will crush him and just take his money. He should just save his money and play someone more his speed. This guy is so cocky that he says he don't care, there is no way this other guy is better. We tell him the guys name and he actually says... "that's the guy I came to play. I've heard of him and I'll wait for him to get here." We even told the guy again that he was out of his league. But, he didn't care. Ended up that we called said player and he beat the sh*t out of the road player. Took his entire roll. The guy actually had the nerve to be upset and say that we hustled him. People are stupid!


hell, I should have played the guy. It just smelled like he was trying to work a hustle. I should have done it anyway!

I guess the induction and production of bliss savors the transportation of ignorance. If only we knew who to place the bet. Chalk on up for the east.

I like a clueless guy with a lot of cash.
 
Vince Frane, another great pool player here, seen a donator that vanished for a while, and got him to play by saying, I heard you took the cure. LOL.
 
Back in the day a guy showed up at our local watering hole looking for some action. The locals took him for a few bills then he demanded some weight because he was being "hustled". The bartender heard this, took a old splintered half broom stick from behind the bar and said "if someone plays you with this would that be enough weight?" The guy laughed and said sure. He left about an hour later having lost his roll and his cue. That was some funny shit!
 
A kid came up to me in the poolroom once and said that he wanted me to give him some advice on going on the road and finding some action. I told him to just go in and ask the bartender if they know anyone that will play for money. Then, I told him, whoever they name first....stay away from!
 
someone once asked what do i do if i practice and still dont get any better? the answer was take 2 weeks off. then quit all together

I actually had a friend of mine tell me this early in our relationship (he is not a great/best friend type, but a friend nonetheless). Problem is, I can beat the crap out of him at pool, and I couldn't have paid my way through KINDERGARTEN with the way I play :embarrassed2:!!!

To this day, I still haven't called him out on it. I don't have a LOT of friends, so I value the ones I do have.

Mike Dooley and Vince frayne. There's a couple of names from my past. I got hundreds of hours of watching them play under my belt! Are both of them still playing?

I laughed so much when Fatty said this that I put it in my Signature :lol:
 
A bunch of us from work went down to the pool hall after work one day. There was this one girl that I worked with that wasn't really blessed with brains, anyhow it was her turn at the table and while she was playing against me I asked her,

"So Nikki, what are you studying in college?"

She says, " I'm going to teach the learning disabled"

Now I have a bad habit of saying whatever comes to my mind out loud and I said,

"Blind leading the blind, eh?" (slightly joking)

And she looks right at me with a straight face and says,

"Oh no, Chris, they're not blind, they're learning disabled"!

She literally had no idea what she just said and I for once was at a complete loss for words!
 
Two times in my life, I played a little money shoot, and a girl would say, if you win the tournament, you win me for the night, I'm happy nobody out played me both times.:D VERRRY NICE.
