Where do people come up with ca-ca like this?
I just talked to Greg and this is definitely not true. We're all still good for the 20-28 of July in Tunica. Same format as the DCC.

Greg could do himself a favor by making a formal announcment in print and maybe that would stop the rumors.
I'll make this as plain as possible: I saw "the rumor" posted here; I called Greg Sullivan; he said Tunica was not canceled.
Consider this his press release -- "Tunica is a go for 20-28 July."
What more do you need?

The actual press release. Quite simple.

It looks like that website has some info mixed in regarding DCC in Indiana.
It also says the deadline for online registration is January 17th under Entry Fees.
The website does need some cleanup, but it looks like a go.
So, what are the chances that an Arkansas (APPA) B-player, such as myself, could pay $160 to play Efren Reyes in 9-ball in a 1st round smash?
It would be worth it to me.
something from the people promoting it. not something from guy "x" posting on the internet. what makes your word the be all end all? are you running the event? do own the venue said event is being hosted at? are you the money behind the event? a promoter? do you have any official capacity to speak for the event? if you do say so. if you don't, than something official is what was asked for. i am pretty sure that's what more he needs.

southernclassictournament.com here is the website for it
Here's the nice thing about Efren... If you walk up and are polite and ask him to play a couple of cheap games just because it would be a great honor for you to have that chance as long as there is a table open close by and he doesn't already have something scheduled... He will most likely agree... Even after all of the years of doing it Efren still loves the game and he loves the people who love it like he does......
do you have any official capacity to speak for the event? if you do say so.
Actually, I do.
I called *Greg Sullivan* (that would be Mr. Diamond Billiard Corporation; Mr. DCC; Mr. Southern Classic (Tunica); The Promoter; The Money Man; etc., et al) last night and told him the rumor that was posted here. He said it was "not true" and that the tournament was still a go. So I told him, if it was OK, what I was going to post to respond to the rumor. He said, "Great, Lou, appreciate it. You know I don't get on the forums much. Thanks for having my back."
Sooooooooooooo, like it or not, that makes me the promoter/money man's offcial spokesmodel on this ;-)
