Hope I can still play pool at 75
I plan on playing pool until I am 75, if God willing. :thumbup:

I just hope to be alive at 75.
With my family history, ever year above 52 is gravy.

The guy down the road from me is 82, I've played with him at my house off and on for 20years anyway he just joined league last year and is an apa 6 in 8ball! the old guy can run a table from time to time!! but I love watching him play a mean safety on the kids! He personally claims pool keeps his mind sharp and plans to play till he can't stand
to old

:wink::grin-square:i am 73 and i am buying a mustang convertible tomorrow
i still have a table at home,but the wife said
"it might be a good idea to sell it"
i still have some nice cues
A South West,A Bob Owen,A new Runde,A Jerry Rauenzahn 360
I can't make a ball,but then again i never could, but i enjoy having nice cues
I used to think about quitting pool,but i lack the back bone
I help my wife with the school
The kids like me,every day they bring me a bag or box of candy
every day my wife gives my gift to a younger person
diabetes wins again
At least i get to drive the Shelby and look at the pool cues
I wish someone would come over and try to win my cues or my car
I still can't play but i think I can beat San Jose Dick,he is older than me
Also i can still stake Jack potter if anybody wants to match up
some things never change
Go figure
Happy holidays to all you other old codgers
I used to like to gamble,but there is not much action anymore

I'd be happy to take your cues and Mustang so you are not nostalgic when looking at them
:wink:It's tough to tell age from the forums, you type like a 50 yr old
Yes, I got you by 10 years..But if there is room around the table for my wheel chair, crutches, oxygen tanks, etc., and someone can hold me up while I shoot, you got 9/7, playing 1P for large $$$$ Deanoc!
PS..Or you can stake Potter against me, even! :wink:

Well I'm not as old as you guys but here's mine:
Oh yeah....:thumbup:
San Jose Dick,I might have been blowing smoke
how did you find my thread
since i am not so sure that you can find such a pool room
i think i will try you at a modest price
i see you still move like a ghost
considering i used to get 15 to 4 from guys your speed,i am encouraged to be only getting 9 to 7
Jack potter is only getting my stake horse money at 9 ball
come to Dallas and you got action
maybe not as high as i was thinking before you called my hand
great to hear you feeling better

I'm 81 and play 3-5 days a week for a 2-3 hours. No Mustang. Anyway after the 1st day my cervical and left shoulder hurt like hell but that why we have anti-inflammatories. I'm sure that I don't play to the level of most of you but there isn't a day that I don't experience disappointment and elation. Can't say that about too many things especially when you throw in "learning."
Cheers to you older fellas..... may we all be blessed to enjoy happiness in our later years! I enjoy greatly playing with the older generations (I'm 38), got a few guys on my teams in the 68-81 range and boy do I enjoy playing with them! Father time catches us all eventually, but until he does....keep stroking!
Man do you have a crystal ball?
Hope I can avoid that!
And keep my Cobra.
Keep at it Johnny.
