We had a retirement party for Mike Bandy several months ago and John, along with many of the Chicago players were there for that. He looked in good health and seemed quite happy. Not sure where he is residing these days but I believe it is still Chicagoland.

Just ran into Jason in Vegas last month and immediately thought of this video. He is priceless.

Multi-layered answer but here goes...... 1) From a playing standpoint: Either won solo or have been a team member of, I believe, 11 national championships or so. 2) Have run over 1000 tournaments around my area over the last 31 years. (Over 18 years and counting on an every friday night...

I dated a girl who lived in Castleton and would go in there during the day while she worked. Great place to kill an afternoon playing some of the old schoolers. I left a few dollars there playing one pocket.

Pass on the big tables. I'm older and my eyes suck along with other things.:cry:

Hey GS. Next time you are around the Chicago area send me a message and I will accommodate you with some bar table action. Thanks

I met Mark and Louie in early 1990 and I'm sure Mark had plenty of his own exploits as he played quite well himself at that time. Can't wait to read the book as I'm sure these 2 had some "interesting" adventures together.

Sebastian Franco( Chino) played great on the bar table and has a pretty bad eye situation going on.

Jack Hines from the "not top of the line" player category.

I played him when he was Charlie Salvino. Actually a very likable guy to be around despite the hustle.

My kitties love Uncle Jerimy.

For me it is 2-fold. Non essential tremors and arthritis in my bridge hand thumb. Not being able to make a comfortable closed bridge without shooting pain and shaking like a leaf make pool a real treat sometimes.😣 I can still get it done sometimes but other times it`s just out of my control...

Yes sir. Sad to hear of Worms passing.

Livingstons in bradenton.

Yes . There is a non-smoking section there.

Hey Scott. Your pms are full.☺

Just to resurrect this thread a little bit with current information. The pool room Livingston's in Bradenton has new owners. I believe the place is a much better visit then in the past. Nice tournament on Wednesday and Friday evenings and very nice equipment.

Here's a hypothetical situation that I'll pose: You are playing in a tournament with a specific set of rules. You shoot a shot that you know is a foul in other sets of rules. Your opponent asks if you fouled. Are you supposed to go get the head referee and ask for a ruling or just give ball in...

I enjoy watching Chicagoan Gil Hernandez play. Seems to make the high percentage play most of the time. Stays on the correct side of the ball and plays nice patterns. Also like his rhythm when he's playing well. Plays all games pretty well on all size tables. Just has a nice well rounded...
