    Jimmy Fusco stories

    If I remember correctly, I saw Durante playing Billy Incardona at Mike Fuscos place on the BLVD. Billy gave him a big spot there. Ronnie kept using a jump cue and beat Billy and Billy was none too pleased (seemed upset about all the jumping). I think this was in the mid-80’s. Word was that...

    Mike Fusco’s World Famous Poolroom Philly’s Boulevard Social and Athletic Club. FUSCO’s !980’s

    It was above the Gaudios’s. I lived on the BLVD a few blocks down. Learned to play pool there (not very well, lol). When I was a kid in the early 80’s kids could play for free on the weekend mornings. Saw a lot of great games there. I’m sure you remember the “exhibition” table with the...

    Name a pool hall you wish was still open today

    Another vote for the Boulevard Social and Athletic Club in Philly above Gaudio's (remember that? lol). I really miss the days back in the 80's when I could watch Jimmy, Petey, Spanish Mike, etc when they were at their best. Lots of action and open 24/7. I never was much of a player but really...

    One thing to add. It's an EC7-D series and I really like it.

    Question about my New Mezz Joint

    I just noticed that the joint on my new Mezz cue seems slightly off (pics provided). Is this typical? The cue rolls straight and seems to play fine. I bought the cue straight from Mezz at the SBE. The pics make the cue seem curved but I guess that's just because of the lens. It's straight...

    Earl vs Shane question

    I've been reading all the posts about this match but I can't seem to figure out a few things: A. How much are they playing for? B. Are the players putting up the cash or is it sponsored? C. Is there a link to the stream? Thanks!!

    Earl tossed out of SBE...

    Maybe he lost it because someone told him that he had to pay $25 for a piece of chalk.

    How much would you pay for a SINGLE cube of chalk??

    $25 for a miniture piece of chalk?!?! That's just ridiculous!! I did hit with it yesterday and I liked it, but it never even occurred to me to ask how much it costs. I'm glad I didn't because I was nowhere near a bathroom.

    Help with search for new cue. Joss?

    I made my decision on my cue. I went to the SBE today and hit with a bunch of cues. After hitting with them the cue that really blew me away was the Mezz. I wound up buying the Mezz EC7-D with the hybrid II shaft. This cue really hits nice. I didn't really think that I was going to go for a...
