Best Ring Game Rooms 5x10

I'd enjoy trying to play a few racks on a 5' x 10' table that isn't a snooker table , nothing against snooker but I can't think of ever seeing anyone ever play more than a game or two if that .
Which is a sad situation .
Ring games were my crack.😂
They've gone the way of 14:1 sadly.
I've tried numerous times to get one going at a local hall here and have to explain the game every time and why they're so much fun, etc... it gets old after awhile. Eyes glaze over after my first two sentences. I just don't get it.
Then I'll see the same players on a barbox downstream visibly upset over playing 8 ball for a fiver.🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️
 
I never saw any fun in the big 5x10 or 6x12 tables that were so tight like bertha. What is the fun or even the skill of dinking a ball 1" at a time until you can get that final 1/2" to be able to move to hole 2.
 
Why I enjoy the idea of a chance to play on a 5' x 10' table is so I could get what it feels like to play in the Big Foot Challenge at the Derby , yes I know I don't have a chance of winning it but I really enjoy a challenge and heaven help the person who tries to tell me that I can't do this or that while playing pool ha ha !
 
Frank the Barber/Almanza played once maybe twice a week at his local AZ pool room with others, he just passed and was in his mid eighties.
He told me the guys would help em get up to walk and he'd shoot about every five minutes or so, he said, these guys never won.
Said hi to em his last day in bed daughter was there.
 
I remember the days of the old Billiards Palace at 11th and Harvard. Always busy and usually some action going on as well.
