Anyone know the whereabouts of Rich Ford?

Rich was a good buddy of mine back in the late 80's. He and I traded several Szamboti's back and forth. He knew more about Szamboti cues than anyone I knew back then. Rich used to live in the Cleveland Ohio area. He managed a BP Gas Station and bought and sold cues. He used to set up with Benny Rienza at a lot of the old Starcher Tournaments. Last I heard he'd quit BP and moved south, to somewhere in the Carolinas IIRC. If anyone is in contact with him, please have him give me a shout.

just more hot air!

He works for Sammy and Lori Jones in Greenville, SC. I don't have the number.

Sherm,

The # is 864-286-3366. If you remember Rich, be prepared to talk for over an hour when you call . I talked to him last week about a WHitten case. I have known Rich for a few years now. There is no one who is more passionate about cues than Rich. I have heard Szamboti stories out the ying yang from him, and they are a pleasure to listen to.

He lives around Greenville, SC (I think Greer) and he gets out occasionally. Before I moved to Tn, I saw him out playing one pocket at least once per week.

When you call him, tell him I said hello.

Mike
