    REWARD + GoFundMe Acct. to catch Mike Surber's murderer

    You would think that they have the cigarette butts, they could do some of the ancestry DNA testing to find close relatives of this guy.

    🎱 What’d seller do to auction four $25 cues for $180 (works out to $45 each)? 🎱

    My guess is someone took a "chance" on this one being something more: Some people will see bids going up and assume something in the lot must be valuable....

    The Pockets are tight and the shelf is deep sounds like the beginning of a sea shanty..... The pockets were tight and the shelf was deep and the balls just rattled and the men would weep.

    gambling and robbing an intoxicated person-moral values-rationalizations

    I don't have kids but I have 7 grandkids via my wife. I have "drown proofed" 3 of them. When I was working on the last one, (they just moved into a house with a pool) we were working on swimming the length of the pool and he was out in the middle and tired and wanted to quit. He was starting to...

    gambling and robbing an intoxicated person-moral values-rationalizations

    I was once a bouncer at a club in Lake Buena Vista right about where Backstage Billiards is now. We had a guy stumble down from another bar (Jimmy's?) and try to come in. I refused him entry and he walked (stumbled) away. My boss (the owner) went nuts on me. He was hurting for money and said he...

    Just Curious...

    Yes, for sure. I am left eye dominant, but sometimes it seems like that changes and my game goes to crap. Funny thing is before I make a thin cut, I always drop my head and make sure my left eye is dead over the cue and I follow the shaft with that eye up to and through the shot line. It amazes...

    It's the one on the left. The two with stickers are early Huebler/Meucci cues. See someone else's picture below.

    Help Identifying Pool Cue

    I bought this cue as online the butt looked a lot like the QB2 (Huebler/Meucci) cues I have. But side by side, they are different. The butt is different. The ring work close to the pin is different. The pin is much different and the joint is different. After looking at all of this, I was leaning...

    Have you ever lost your cue?

    I have put a small piece of paper up inside the bumper of my cue with my name on it. I figured if anyone did steal it and I was asked for some proof of ownership, I would have some. I did have a thief grab my Instroke Cowboy case with all of my cues in it at a tournament one time. We all had...
