I once beat the 1-Ball ghost.
Yes you are. And a very good person to play sir. Glad to see you this past May.Yeah, I am a tough old cookie. 73 years young. Truly do enjoy beating the youngsters. Specially the ones who think they should win because they're hot shots and I'm too old. My favorite retort is, "Son, how does it feel to get beat by your grandfather". Sadly I've used that phrase too many times now. Perhaps when YOU get to be my age, you'll understand.

I opened this thread 'cause I spotted your name....wondered what you'd say.
So now, you have my sympathies for your dyslexia affliction....
...your idea of the 1-ball ghost is starting from the 15-ball at rotation....
.....only you and the guy in your pic can do that.....:bow-down:
I have only played in Amateur events
Some Minnesota State Titles, Seven State Titles, some VNEA World Championship Titles.
Really fond of a 2nd place in 9 ball in the 50 year old classic VNEA World Championships as the only time I have played 9 ball is at the championships.
A couple of VNEA 30-Zip awards and a 50-Zip award. 27 league championships &
21 second place finishes.
VNEA World Champion in 8 ball division classics in the past.
Was honored by my league charter holder of being nominated to their original class of " Hall of Famers ". It meant so much to me, I threw 131 trophies away. Kept the name tags to put on a big plaque one day.
Here's a photo of trophies that hit the dumpster after my hall of fame induction. I did keep the VNEA Cougars from the world championships though.
Not bad as pool is a fun hobby and have met hundreds of wonderful people. Just a great sport to be part of.
