Check the vendor list for the BCAPL Nationals in July and the APA Team Nationals in August. Pretty sure Predator, Jacoby and OB will be there. Not sure about Becue. Lyn

Many years ago, a irate player assaulted a referee during the BCAPL event at the Riv. Riv security refused to call Metro. They wanted to handle it themselves. The ref called Metro himself and the player was arrested and charged. Whether there was injury or not was not the problem. Since...

Until I read the challenge from Michael on Facebook, I was not aware of this conflict. If someone challenges you and questions your ethics, both personal and business, what would YOU do? The rest of your post was well written and I agree with most of it. Making John the bad guy here seems to...

Dean, AZ has become a more focused version of Facebook. The negativity and misinformation here is astounding! As I still play daily with the same Schon cue and shaft I purchased in 1993, not sure what's happening in the for sale / trade area. Probably the same incorrect descriptions as in...

Thanks for the reply. Watched Corey lose his first match to Bruce Nagle. He seemed kind of "sleepy" and mis-played way too many shots for a player of his ability. Think this is his third win. Not sure. Lyn

Hi Folks, Anyone know who won the $5000 added Invitational in Erie, PA? Left after losing to Billy Thorpe in the single elimination stage. Thanks. Lyn

Hey Kid, How are you doing? John and Karen posted a picture of their booth at the APA event. Hope it was for real! Lyn

Tap, tap, tap! Lyn

In the late 80's and early 90's, I worked for the B & W / Adcom / Tandberg rep firm in New England. Did you happen to work for "Cookin"? Lyn

Hu, In our county in New York, you actually have to have a permit to hold a GOOB sale. The permit must be displayed in a prominent spot visible to all who enter the store and in each advertisement. On my only visit to NYC's Times Square in the late 60's, found my favorite store sign to be...

John, Having spent 38 years in the consumer electronics business, I can tell you one absolute truth. If someone advertises a $200 retail item for "only $100" and continues to do so without ever actually selling the item for $200, the item is really a $100 retail item regardless of any...

Are you for real? Overrated fit and finish? Have two I use virtually every day. My custom leather 4 x 8 butterfly is nearly five years old. There is nothing, nothing imperfect on that case. My Ultimate Rugged only gets used when I'm in Vegas. Every seam. Every zipper. Every part of the...

Paul, The whole scenario was outrageous. Watched it live and repeated that shot several times. Still have no idea what Mr Filler was actually trying to do. Can say he received one of the most timely table rolls I've seen in quite a while. Unless my vision is completely gone, the object...

Did you happen to read any of the crap posted challenging John on Facebook? If he reacted, he had some cause to do so. JMHO. Lyn

How about "Winter Wonderland"? Lyn

Forgot to add one thing. Bring money. Lots of it. It's Mandalay Bay after all! Lyn

Bring ear plugs. You can be sure a whole bunch of drunk Europeans will be screaming EUUUUUUUROPE!!!! at the top of their lungs every time something happens. Good or bad! Not even going to mention the stomping on the aluminum grandstands. Oops, I mentioned it anyway. Sorry! Lyn

Yeah, that was the number I remember as well. If Pat had decided to be a "pro", his name might be up there with the greats of the game. Pat chose work and family. Remember, he eventually played in the same room with Mike Sigel and Irving Crane. He was also one of the very few to be a playing...

Several years ago in the days when my late friend, the great Pat Howey was still playing, I ran 187. Sadly there was no one present to verify the run so I originally didn't post it on the forum. PM'ed one of our most distinguished members with my dilemma. He suggested posting it anyway as...

Dean, My guess is John and perhaps Karen are in Vegas for the US Open events. You might call Griff's and ask for Gary Lutman. He'll know if John is in town. He also might still be at the Expo center in Oaks, PA taking down the "castle" they built to display his cases at SBE :rolleyes: ;)...
