Well - I really do not remember the shot itself, but...:
Back in 1991 there was a big international tournament in Munich.
That was the tourny where Jeff Carter lost in the finals to Earl Strickland.
There was a lot side action going on.... - ...like:
- Toni Deigner & Thomas Engert were playing Mike LeBron (Mike won),
- Ralf Ma hustled Oliver Ortmann in straight pool (went out even(!),
- ...lots to tell, but here is the nice little story about the Miz:
On one of the warm up tables there was a japanese guy (I don't remember his name) trying a pretty hard shot over and over again. But without success!
In the meanwhile a big fat guy in an Hawai shirt and bermuda shorts came along and was watching the japanese guy...
I just thought: "Oh man - why does that tourist risks disturbing the japanese guy?!?"
I almost went crazy when this fat tourist headed the japanese and asked him, what he was trying there... (Man - I was mad!)
After a short explanation the "tourist" took the japanese's cue and executed maybe 3 or 4 times in a row a perfect shot!!!
H@lly shit - after a short while somebody came over and told me that was Steve Mizerak!
That was the moment I started to hesitate before judging somebody! :wink:
