It just popped up on my YouTube. I don't know how but maybe somebody can post a link to it.
While on the subjects, I was wondering why more pool players don't get themselves on talk shows. There probably is a problem cuz you got to set up a pool table but then also how many of these pool players actually have agents that can get them gigs.

I think pool was more of a mainstream thing back then. I am assuming this was around the time of the Miller Lite Beer Commercial.
 
The history of pools rise and decline has been going on forever. In 66 I started plying pool at 14 years old. During the school year on Saturday morning the place opened at 10 am. Kids like myself started to get there at 9 or earlier in order to get a table. The doors would open and we’d have every table going in ten minutes. We would play all day long non stop.
Pool was very popular then.. The town of under 20000 people had three pool rooms and they all survived.

Two movies saved/boosted the game in this country, the first was 'The Hustler' followed 25yrs later by the COM. Before each movie the game was not in the best of shape. I was too young when The Hustler came out but i was eye-witness to the incredible post-COM boom.
