Anyone ever played "Bar Billiards"?

Looks like a pretty fun game...

Yes I've played it years ago. I think the national or world championships are still in NJ.

There was another table like that in the 1950's in most bars in NY. It was called Q-Ball. It had only one wood mushroom. I wish I could find one in good shape now. The great thing is you only shoot from the front of it, meaning you don't need anywhere as much room as a 3x7 pool table. I think a company makes one now out in CA or WA. I believe it's called BarBilliards. Johnnyt

If I saw one I would stay away from it. It looks to much like Bucktooths keno board.

There is very very little luck in either Bar Billiards or Q-Ball. In Q-ball there is about none. There are caroms, 3 rail banks, combos, and safes and kicks in both games. It is not a toy like it looks. Johnnyt

It's a great game, used to play it a lot in England years ago, Great until you knock down the black mushroom that is...........

If you knock over the Black pin you lose all the points from ALL your rounds. If you knock a Brown over you just lose what you made that time at the table. Johnnyt
