At Blue Fin Billiards, there’s pretty much ring games and also a golf game taking place most days
and tournaments every Saturday and week nites as well, plus several different local & nat’l leagues.
A regular league never seemed to have much interest since folks are mainly interested in individual
play & getting some action on the side. The stakes range are $.50 & $1, $1 & $2 or $2 & $3 on ring
games or a outright race for $5 & $10 or even a $1 or $2 per game King of the Hill. Everyone seems
interested playing that way versus forming a daytime league with regular schedules had little interest.

Plenty of league play every night around here. In the day time two bars have over 8 tables with free play until 4pm. Every day, there are seniors playing free. I'm thinking if we had a senior league play, there might be interest. I hate going out at 7pm when I have all day long to play.
Here's what was cool about this league. You got paired up against everyone in the league twice each session (round-robin style) on a weekly basis. Here's the best part: Everybody had everybody else's phone number and you got in contact with your opponent (or they with you) and worked out a time during the week to play the match that was suitable for both players. This resulted in a large percentage of matches (mine at least) to be played during the daytime. It was a great format and worked very well.
Now that right there is funny!I heard they tried it once, but a huge argument broke out. One player accused another of using PEDs after frequent trips to the restroom.
Turns out it was just an enlarged prostrate issue.
