Ok guys. the cue is on the way to me. One item - I said I wanted to present the cue at bca league, on the first Thursday after receiving the cue. The reason for that was that most of the players will be there and most of them know Gene. However, this Thursday is new years day and we do not have...

get a life dude. Do you have a DD214 ?

Here is Gene ! There was a lot of action tonight at the den and he was there the whole time on the rail, sweatin it ! I've spoken with the BCA league operator here , and we are going to present it to him the first Thursday after we receive the cue. Its A league and masters that night so...

Thanks you !

yea he will love it !!! thanks so much for organizing this ! PM sent all of you guys, thank you for your generosity and concern ! I cant remember when i've seen such an out pouring !!!! Steve Raynes

I like this ! I will present it to him at the billiard den, where his cue was stolen and post pics ! And of course updates every step of the way. Thanks again guys. Wow !!!

You know man , I don't really know how to respond to this post. If you knew Gene, I feel 100% confident you would have a different opinion of the man. The man that's helps local hustlers by loaning them one of his "extra" schons, has loaned money to local players ( the ones that don't work to...

wow, guys i dont even know what to say !!! thank you so much. I will get a picture of Gene asap and post it up. I don't think he has seen this thread, so I'm debating on telling or just surprising him ?

thanks guys so much and Merry Christmas, I will let Gene know what's happening here, i'm sure he will be very humbled by it, although he probably won't accept. It's still very heartening, cant wait to pass this along thank you

I'll participate

it is possible my friend is misremember the details of this cue. If it's a 200 Adam, I still want to help him find it. there is no benefit to him to misrepresent what his cue is intentionally, when it was stolen.

i dont give shit about any of that. just help us find the cue please. thanks have a nice day. You're either calling me a liar or my friend. You would be wrong in both cases no embellishments at all to the story.

update I just spoke with Gene again. he said he bought it in 1957 from George. I suppose he could be mistaken about the year, but to me as a friend, I don't care. I'm just trying to help him get his stick back. thanks for trying to clarify exactly what it is we are looking for though. as...

ok, I may have misunderstood him or he may have told me wrong, I'll find out.

i took those pics last year with my phone, so i cant tell. I'll ask him again. Going off of memory, i dont think it had any markings on it. does that sound right or were they all marked ? i dont know that much about them

yea, it took me about 17 mins to figure that out. lol

yea im gonna do that. I print out some pics also, that's a good idea

he's real old and kinda frail, so I'm on the hunt for him. sickening. nicest old man ever. He would let any of the local players around here play a few games with it since he cant play anymore.
