A tribute to Bugs Rucker

[iowa_player]

I never had a chance to meet the man but I have heard a ton of great things about him . I was looking for some video's of Bugs and came across this tribute and wanted to share it with everyone im sure those that were lucky enough to know the man will chime in and hopefully share a story or two with us .

Billiard Club TV presents, a tribute to Leonard "Bugs" Rucker. In a search of our video archives, we came across this Bugs Rucker tribute, hosted by Grady Mathews at the 2005 Derby City Classic.

I have a banking DVD of Bugs when he was still healthy and he was a big man. The vid is rough, but he explains everything very well about the thickness of hit, and the english involved. What a talent.
