Butthole Surfers have a song on their album Locust Abortion Technician called 22 Going On 23.

That happened (Efren's eight rack run) in the 1999 WPC semifinals against Bustamante. I have that video on my website.
There is that video of him playing on a barbox vs Johnny Archer with Steve Mizerak sweating/talking. I had thought his high run was mentioned in it but apparently not. Too bad the video is less than 5 minutes. I couldn't find much on youtube of Matlock but what a beautiful smooth stroke he has.
Seems like I remember Paul Turners name mentioned with that number, from Atlanta area I think.
old car in my salvage yard ...
Had an old car in my salvage yard, had the little flaps on a screw to swing over the buttons to keep the inside lights off. Had to laugh, Oh yeah, remember exactly what those were about!

Josh Filler claims 27. No other details.
I heard a story about Matlock running a number in the 20s, 23 I think
I've heard that too and would not doubt it a bit.
Last year at the 8 ball Classic in Duluth MN, Omar Al Shaheen ran 10 in a row against SVB in the first round. SVB did come through and win the tournament. And earlier this year, in one of the Isolation Tournaments on Facebook, Tim Tonjum of MN ran 25 racks playing 8ball against the ghost, ball in hand after the break.
Lassiter ran 19 racks of 9-Ball in a money match with multiple witnesses. Howard Barrett was there and told me about it. This was on a big table, not sure if it was oversized 8' or 9'. I don't think I even asked Howard that question.
I watched Jimmy Reid run ten racks of Eight Ball on a bar box, the most I ever saw. We won 200 for that display. But that was MONEY back then!
Buddy, Keith and Matlock were the best I ever saw on the bar box, but somehow David impressed me the most. He had more power than anyone else.
There were twice as many bar table hustlers as big table guys. Peter Gunn, Bakersfield Bobby and Weldon Rogers were three of the best out West playing with the big ball.
