Steve...The last time I saw Charlie, which was several years ago at the SBE, we went up to his room so he could show me some cues he was trying to sell, as well as some wines that he wanted to sell too. Naturally we popped a cork on one and had a glass (or two). LOL

About the case of wine thing, I don't want to unfairly paint the guy with that story. He wasn't looking to push it on an underage kid. I was "one of the guys" in the poolroom, and I'm sure he asked everyone. I just thought it was bizarre because at least in those days and in that region, wine was looked at as more of an older person's drink. It was totally out of left field that he asked me, and I just remember laughing at such an absurd question.
Anyway, just wanted to mention a funny anecdote, not hurt the guy's image. He's done enough of that himself with all his pool stardom stories...
