I remember Mr bond often.Unfortunately I did not realize how great Keven was until he passed.
Hemicudas was another great member that I member.
These threads have been duplicated many times over the years.
Might need a sticky to keep them on top....wait, what,
Oh yeah, Mr. Bond had some good stuff.
Always a Wellington.

Good memories there. That was my pool hall in my teens and twenties. Pete was the best owner. Miss him and Cue Corner!

Many just don't post enough to stay fresh in my memory but their content is excellent.
Speaking of historic posters, JimmyG was a huge favorite of mine. I can't recall what he did for Mike to give him a death sentence.

Yeah , I knew that, got anything else? like the formula for becoming regular after the age of 75?
I have to say that I'm honored to be mentioned here by so many posters. I've been lucky to have had an unobstructed view of so many pool happenings over the last several decades. And they were still so many events I missed due to other commitments like running a poolroom. I feel fortunate to have seen pretty much all the great players that we so often talk about on here, most of whom I knew on a first name basis. I love talking about them. It keeps their memory alive for me, especially since they entertained me for so many years. Just about every time someone brings up a legendary player I remember something about them that sticks in my mind. I'm glad to be part of such a forum where people can appreciate the history of our sport and enjoy talking about it. There are many great books out there, but much is still an oral history. I could never write a book about all the great matches and crazy things I witnessed in poolrooms all across America, and beyond. But I can share with you the things that come to mind.
I find good posts everywhere on this forum by all of you. Everyone has something to add and we can always learn something new. As for me, I've got so much pool memorabilia bouncing around in my head that I love having a chance to share it. I learned so many tricks of the trade along the way, just by paying attention to what the top guys were doing and asking questions. And some things you learn just by trial and error, a key component of Efren's rise to the top. He used to sit and watch amateurs bang balls just to see how they would react. He told me once when I asked him why he watching a couple of lower level players play a match, "I learn from them Jay."
Thanks everybody!

Narrowed it down. Pretty much agree with your whole list though BD. These are the names I generally enjoy reading. There's lots of personalities I enjoy reading on here. As a relative newcomer to the forum, there are some historic names in older posts that I don't see posting anymore that probably need one pouring out for 'em too.
I had a poster of the great Richard The Kid Riggi . It got thrown out while I was away and I have tried to get another with no luck

I miss jimmyg a lot…..he had some great threads…..and many of those threads I can’t find.
I must admit I went into a sulk and didn’t renew my gold membership.
I was busy when he got banned…don’t know what it was about.
