Pittsburgh, early 1990s Went to high school with a kid who was a year ahead of me but in one of my English classes. He missed school a lot or used school as a place to catch up on sleep. The reason, we later found out, he was skipping and sleeping because he was out playing pool every night...

Christmas came early.

Did you twirl it over your head like a Samauri as you rocketed in stop shots with Werewolves of London blasting?

I was at a store in central Pennsylvania two years ago that restores old tables. They had an old Brunswick titlist two piece on the wall that had seen better days but was in tact. I asked how much they wanted and the guy said $50. Picked it up and he threw in a one piece titlist house cue that...

Well then I'm definitely in. Make no promises its a style I like but I'd like to at least have an opportunity.

I may be interested when you are and I'll swear on a Bible or the book of your choice that it won't be flipped.

I’d put Billy over Fedor and SVB at this point.

I graduated high school. OJ got arrested. Nancy Kerrigan got whacked. So too did the World Series.

When I got my Stinger in 2016, I want to say it was around $200. I've made no modifications to it in eight years and it might honestly be the best jump cue I have.

If money is not an object, the BK Rush is a great break cue. If it is, I still use my McDermott Stinger jump break a lot and its equally effective.

Next question is does he get disqualified for Mosconi, which means disqualified from having to face the American crowd in the face of this.

I want the convertible next to it.

And holds $75 worth of quarters.

Was he wearing one of those shirts that say Hustlin'? That would have been an indicator.

I'm wondering if it is to eliminate someone taking a *ahem* performance enhancing drug during a match. I remember playing a dude once who was all over the place until he "went out to smoke a cigarette." Came back 10 minutes later smelling like Cheech and Chong and couldn't miss.
