Mr. Shooni has a really nice room. Especially those tables with the TOURNAMENT BLUE SIMONIS on them.

Thanks, if I go I'll remember to bring my yellow shooting glasses.

They sure got the Fargo ratings off there, D players would be 300 range not just under 500, C players are 400s.

I am guessing a few of the better players in the area would be there, I would put my money on Billy the Kid if he plays.

It is a nice room, I played in a few of their weekend tournaments, mostly fair handicaps and well run. Some of the best setup Gold Crowns also I ran into. I think they had a few funny playing European tables but they got rid of those. And of course plenty of 3C tables and Triangle chalk for people to try :smile:

Plus there is a regular there that acts like Earl, players would be 10 feet from him on another table and he would growl and make eyes at them like they were in his way or bothering him LOL Fun to watch. I remember he was at some tour event in RI, we were just practicing and he hit a shot where the cueball hit a ball, that ball hit a second ball but the second ball did not touch a rail. I went to pick up the cue ball and he started to cause a stink and calling me a cheater, saying he hit the balls.
