A pool hall in my hick town.

My little Alaskan town had a pool hall for a few years and has been closed for 3 years. It has a sign in the windows that says opening soon and all the tables and stuff from the original owner is still in there. A little fact checking confirmed the owner of the building is going to have a new manager running it.

It has 7 Brunswick 9' Centennial tables in there that needed new cloth, other then that, the tables played ok. The 8 Ball League slowly fell apart due to an apparent lack of interest.

I hope they can make ago of it and will give them some business even though I have a decent table at home. The problem is they won't be selling beer, which I could care less about, but most of the players around here do.

I would love to have some competition on a regular basis and really hope it can stay open and get a league going and host a few small tournaments once in awhile. I hope the new manager has some good ideas.
 
Good luck with it. You must be very excited to be getting a poolroom back in town.

Steve,

Please check to see if those are Centennial tables.

My gut says NOT.

(To refresh, the centennial was aluminum aprons and corners - in an art deco style.

Why is your whole town having the hickups?

Other than that - good luck that the place will have decent tables!
 
wrong table

You are right Mark, they are not a Centennial. Guy that had them said they are Centurion tables. Do you know any thing else about pool or tables I don't know. LOL

I remember the old days watching you work on tables, seems like it was almost 50 years ago! My how time flies.

Yes sir, for a room full of Centennials, I'd drive the 2 days to get to Alaska.
