I'm Going to Tunica
- Thread starter JAM
- Start date
You better. I'm calling in all the troops. This is going to be the Big Kahuna of pool events, if I have anything to say about it. One thing for sure, we will be entertained and have fun! That, I can guarantee you! :wink:
Yes, do come. The more the merrier!
Wouldn't it be cool if somebody makes a good score?! Last time we went to the craps table, we were on a roll, to the tune of 15 dimes! Started out with a $300 budget and watched it grow!
It sure is fun seeing you enthused about something related to pool, JAM.
:thumbup:
I've never had an urge to go to Mississippi for anything, but reading this makes me wish I had the time and do-ray-me. Have a great time, make some reports here, and don't forget that camera.

Used to make the 7 hour trip frequently with my not so silent partner....he was a high rolling "Chicken Fighter" who loved the dice. With the exception of one time, we were up 5 figures within 3 or 4 hours. To sum it up....the trip home was a whole lot longer!
To fill in some blanks, Chad is Greg's nephew. He's also the VP of Diamond, and part owner. Chad is the person most responsible for the day to day operations of the Diamond factory and is involved with Diamond in every respect.Read all about it: Southern Classic in July 20-28, 2012
Is Greg Sullivan associated with this? He's my favorite pool industry member. If Greg is involved with this, then, by golly, I'm in like Flynn. :smiling-heart:
When you wake up today, you will read it here first, Keith: We're going to Tunica.
Who is Chad Scharlow?
Ain't nothing better than Beautiful Dixie for a pool tournament!
Jennie Ann <---On the road again in July and will be lovin' it! :wink2:
Glen
Chad is the handsome devil! He's Greg's partner in Diamond. He's the brains and Greg's the muscle. :thumbup:
Wish you were coming, K.C. You got time to plan for this. Make it happen, dag nab it!
Oh, he'll be hitting 'em for sure. I read there will be a lot of bar boxes, and that's his specialty. :wink:
I hope they have an action table. Are you reading this, Greg? :angel:
My work is a ball and chain, but I will find a way to make this event work for us. It is difficult for me to be away from my job for an extended period of time, but I have a work associate who owes me a favor. I covered his jobs when he went to Europe for 2 weeks. Now it's my turn. I'm calling in my favor, so I can go to Tunica.
I might even rent a Cadillac for the road trip. I'm going first class all the way for this one. I'm going to be Riding with the King!
It's been a long while since we've been on the road, and the horse needs to get out of the barn and run. What better place to sow your wild oats than Tunica, I say!
Tunica or bust! :happydance::happydance::happydance::happydance:
What have you been smokin'? You sound like Road Woman herself!
Action Table? Try 30 or 40! Tell Keith to unlimber that stroke of his. People will be watching his every move, the legendary Keither With The Ether!
I'm a professional road woman. What can I say?!
Unfortunately for Keith, I need to drive. I cannot take a plane.

I was kind of thinking like a Challenge Table, like the one they have a Super Billiards Expo, where there's a list of challengers. We call it the "Action Table." The rail can make bets on the breaker or the racker. I can't imagine 30 or 40 tables like that, but nothing surprises me when it comes to the South. I love the South. :smiling-heart:
BTW, I checked out the hotel rates online, and they're EXCELLENT. What's the difference between the Veranda Hotel and the Terrace Hotel, I wonder? Horseshoe Tunica

Working on that right now. Keith may go without me. I have work, but there's a New Orleans friend coming up, and they may go together. It's only about a 2-1/2-hour drive from where we live. It's a beautiful area and nice time of year!

You can come join the fun, too, you know. Try to make it happen. You're one of my favorite AzB-ers.
BTW, HP laptops have Beats audio. My brother just bought one, and I'm looking to get me a desktop with the Beats. I'm shopping online for one now, hoping to get a good deal!
Come to Tunica!
And then there's Mark Griffin - third partner - who's my favorite Diamond guy :thumbup:
S.G.
OH.....now you're just being prejudice...LMAO
Rick, it's hard to believe it's been 6 years. Wow! It will be really cool to talk to you in person instead of online or e-mail. First coffee is on me!
