    Highest Concentration of 'Good' Players in the U.S.

    Yep, north of Utah is a little ole town called Great Falls, MT. I have been told by the owner of the busiest room in town (pros show up for his $$ added tournaments) that Great Falls has more league players PER CAPITA than any area in the US. That is definately a concentration:D of players.

    The HolyGrail of cues?

    A movie I'd like to see.

    I do know that there was a movie made in CA where the extras for the pool room scenes were the real thing. Made for tv movie with Dennis Franz, and Whoopie Goldberg--- didn't care for the movie, but liked Dennis and the "extras". It was Kiss Shot.
