Danny Medina. Champion -for-hire

Danny Madina

My name is Mark, this is a good STORY ABOUT DANNY MADINA!
i lived in Las Vegas for about 25yrs, i have known Danny for most of that time. Some times i worked on his car, and bought several cues from him when he was sponsered by Meuci, have put him in tournaments and backed him in a couple matches. I played him once in a tournament in vegas, a local 20$ entry single elimination handicapped. drew him in semi finals where he spotted me 4 games going to 12, i won the flip, and proceded win 7 games in a row to get on the hill 11-0, he then came to me and said! "if i let you win will you split everything you win from here out?" typical Danny, lol. i said no, then i broke that rack dry, he proceded to run 10 racks in a row, then in rack eleven he hung the 4 ball, i ran out and won the set. My claim to fame against Danny! lol He's always been a good guy to me and i will allways be a friend to him. I support the idea of him in this situation, he will be a good crowd pleaser for anyone who invites him to their room for action. I will rail bet with him!!!!!
Mark Meyers
ps. Tell him Hello for me! hope he is doing well!
I will ask the room owner in mooresville nc. about his proposal. the room is 150-n-out billiards and darts.
one of the best rooms in the country, beautifull place i hang out in now! Come down to NC. Danny, i can find you lots of action.

I don't believe that Danny ever had a thought that he was beaten until the last ball fell. With that attitude he wasn't!

Neither might be quite the speed they once were but I can't help thinking it might be a lot of fun to see Danny and Keith McCready go at it on a barbox. I'd like to see a freshly tuned old barbox with the mudball as long as I was looking for an old time barbox brawl.

I am Cashrider, Friend, Fan and Agent of The great Danny Medina.

Fate brought me to this site today, as l don't visit as often as I should.

Greetings Mark: I saw your post and and called Danny and read it to him.

Danny remembers you and thanks you for you kind words.

PM me with your contact info as Danny would like to say hello.

Danny Medina represents a era in pool that is arguably the most exciting time in the sport...

His exploits ares still talked about to this day....

None of us will live forever and l advise those of you who care, take the opportunity to talk with him, to watch him play, to be in the presence of a type of player that will never come this way again...a true champion, as Danny never refers to himself as a hustler, he never felt the need to hustle you...

he tells you straight up who he is and then:

"Show you which way the toad hops."

I am glad you told him about my post! i had hopped he would see it! He can reach me @ 7025035976 i am in North Carolina now. would love to chat old pool stories with him.
He may not know this but i learned alot from him, and i am now considered a top player he now and credst some of that to him. For most people that may not know him, he was one of the very few players to run full sets out in pro tournies. Great player, he should be in the hall-of-fame! best cash player i ever had the pleasure to watch. Saw alot of battles between him and Keith, thanks for the responce!
