I've heard of Billy "The Kid" Aguero and Billy "The Kid" Lanna but am not familiar with Kirshner.
Looking forward to the posts to come.
Billy Kirshner
If it's who I think you are talking about, from Philly,he was one of Pete Fusco's young guns. He studied the game for quite a while under Pete's supervision. He played strong regional tournaments, I thought he was a better money player. He was a OK kid at that time, did nothing but play pool. He got a job with UPS in the early nineties, I think he lasted about a week and quit. Back then UPS jobs paid good monet. If you see Billy, please tell him Charlie (cue collector) wishes him well. Also mention to him I'm still pissed about the Scrugg's cue he didn't sell me in the early nineties. The last time I saw him he was playing in the Pro straight pool tournament in Brunswick NJ or New York.

I would have to see a pic to attach som certainty to this story, but he caught the losing end of a fighting one-pocket martchup in va.
I did witness it, but not sure who kirchner is.
Lanna I do know. He's got a little dog in him.

Think he lives in Indy now.
Didn't see his name on the Midwest tournament, not sure why he wouldn't go to that with as close as it is and all the money.

Pat Garrett shot him.
Well sheet...that puts a little damper on the conversation. Did he make it or is this a posthumous reciting of stories?
wow, just wow. Google Pat Garett.
The first thing that popped up was an old west sheriff, do we think this is some kind of conspiracy type thing?
lol your kidding right? If not I'll bite: who did Pat Garett shoot?
Have you heard of the Ol' west story of Billy the Kid and Pat Garret?
Happened in New Mexico, just do a Google search....
The OP is talking about somebody they called "Billy the Kid"....different, LOL
I know! I was trying to lead JazzyJeff to the joke.
Lol yes I was kidding at that point :grin:
I had just talked to a pool player who’d been shot twice in his “career” on Saturday and plenty of my friends have been gunned down in our road profession as well so I was in a shooting frame of mind I guess
Billy and I were talking about poker once and he told me that he’s folded over 70 times in a row before. I don’t have that kind of patience.
I figured I’d better not play him any one pocket. He might’ve played safe 70 times in a row too if necessary.

Did he have an incident in St. Louis recently?
