Hello all I was wondering what is the craziest most wildest thing you have ever seen while out playing pool or watching pool. It can be anything envolving pool. I once seen a guy break a rack of 9ball to have his cue ball jump off the table land on another table and pocket a ball. I seen a guy one time in the poolroom dog balls so much that he snapped his pool cue over his knee and left the poolroom. Everyone started laughing when he left but we were all suprised when he came back with another cue in his hands about 2 minutes later. Another crazy thing that I did not see but wish I had was and this may not be true but I heard that johnathon pinegar "hennessee" was mouthing and *****ing like he always does when he is losing was running his mouth off to bobby pickle and bobby went over and ***** smacked him like a little girl. I would pay money to have seen that.
 
been in a pool hall a few times when bullets flew

It doesn't make for an exciting story but it makes for an exciting few moments when you are unaware of the events leading up to the shots being fired and have no idea which way they are flying or why!

what did the five fingers say to face? SLAP!

i saw hennessee get smakced by pickle... it happend about 3 yrs ago in memphis in a pool hall called "billiard's east" it was the greatest thing i have ever seen... bobby warned him.. hennessee kept talking.. bobby was shooting he calmly set his stick on the table ... walked over and smacked the taste out of his mouth... then picked up his stick and ran out... hennessee went to the bathroom, came back and played out the set... it was the damnedest thing i have ever seen
 
i was watching a table from my league match. And some girl shoots the cue ball off a far rail. The q then jumps up and back pockets a ball. After I saw her do that it was damn, she is so hot.

hahahaaha I always heard that rumor now I guess it is confirmed. So he just set his cue down goes over to hennessee and smacks him. I am curious but what was hennesse saying Thanks for the input.
 
bobby had called a foul on hennessee earlier.. and it was a foul.. and hennessee just kept talking about it... bobby had a straight in shot... no possible way to foul unless he double hit the cue ball or something and after bobby pocketed the ball hennessee said Foul! sarcastically, then bobby smacked him

hahaha that sounds like hennessee. I cant believe that nobody has beat hennessee to death. Does hennessee act like that around the upper echelon of players like strickland ,deuel ?
 
the other thing is that the foul he kept on about had happend early in the previous set like an hour ago... hennessee was just getting trounced and kept on and on and on about it ... bobby told him a few times to shut up about it... he finally said he was gonna smack him if he brought it up one more time.. and true to his word --- he did
 
i saw hennessee playing buddy hall... buddy kicked at a ball and fouled... hennessee jumped out of his chair and goes "that's a foul!" ... buddy said "i know what a foul is.... i have been playing longer than you have been alive!" .. hennessee replied " I can't tell " ... so yes... he insulted a hall of famer for no reason... prior to that... buddy had done nothing but be his normal class act self
 
That has to be one of the craziest things that I have ever heard. I am literally laughing out loud as I type this. Did the crowd go "AWWWWWWWWWW" and then get silent. Hennessee must have felt like a damn pussssy

I also heard that tournament they hold in popular bluff hennessee was getting his nuts shot off by some unknown after he was down like 6-0 he was throwing his quarters at the bar table out of disgust. Saying If I cant beat you I dont need to be playing stuff like that...
 
one last thing

James Christopher gave hennessee 9-6 playing one pocket four ahead for $2000 dollars... sounds boring right?? wrong!!! james crhistopher was playing one handed and it was a $50 penalty for every word you said to the opponent during a game that wasn't directly related to the game... they even had the owner of the pool hall judging what was crucial and what wasn't... hennessee was quiet as a mouse and got beat 5-1.. thats 4 ahead for all of you not in the "know"

That is very interesting. James Christopher. AKA superstroke christopher is this the same guy.? I talked to mike davis at the DCC and hennessee walked by us and I said that guy plays pretty sporty and he told me "yea he is good but he has such an attitude problem" So apparently not only do us common folks think hennesse is a jerk so do the top pros. Like you said hennessee could be a world beater but he is too stupid to find anything but his own arogance.
 
Many years ago when I was still a teenager, I was hanging out in a pool hall around 4 or 5 am on a weekend. The place was filled with a lot of tough characters. It was one of those places where if you look at someone in a wrong way you could get beat up. There must have been about 50 or so people in there.
Anyway, we were minding our business and playing pool. All the sudden, a girl rushed into the pool hall screaming with blood all over her face and upper body. She was screaming and crying to the top of her lung.
As she got into her car with her boyfriend, someone drove by and shot her boyfriend right in front of her. The boyfriend was already in the car and she was just about to get in. She saw the head of her boyfriend exploded right in front of her eye!
The police came and locked up the whole place. The owner told us to all stay for questioning and we were offered free pool for as long as we stayed. I played for may be 5 or 6 hours I can't remember and it was free.
I think I also played some ping pong for free but I can't remember. It was many years ago.
 
laughing... I saw that. The smacking session...If my memory serves me correctly, I think I also remember him throwing a cueball at someone during the Rack tournament in memphis one year... or Maybe that was Little Jon.. If anyone was there, maybe they could remind me...

Richard, you should be a writer. I'm sure glad you remembered the 'ping pong' - I knew there had to be more to that story! :)
 
This happened in a pool hall called Starlite many years ago. It has since changed owners many times. It was one of the two 24 hours pool halls in Burnaby, BC, Canada.

I am sure the atomosphere is much cleaner and better now, and it is no longer under the same name if I understand correctly.

I remember after that incident, I went home and slept for a whole day.:)

can't really beat it but saw something sort of similar. The pool hall was fine but the neighborhood wasn't so hot. Woman got beat up by her boyfriend and was screaming like she was going to die. She kept screaming she was blind now or something. This was in a parking lot maybe 50 yards from the poolhall. It sounded really bad. So some guys from the pool hall went out to help her. They took cues out and were going to be tough guys or something. I dunno. I stayed by the door watching the register since the houseman went outside, and tried to see the goings-on. Well, they tried to get a plate # on the guy's car and he didn't like that and wasn't real impressed by the pool cues. he got a 12 ga. out of the trunk and racked a round in it, and I have never seen 3 pool hall cigarette smokers run so fast, and don't expect I ever will.

They got back inside and no rounds were fired. The cops were called and one came and was one of those arrogant know it all types. he came in with the swagger asking the classic "What is the problem here?' and all that. He was informed that the gentlemen down the block had a shotgun and might display it for the nice officer. The cop started going "er. er. er." He called for backup and about 17000 cops came and took the guy in. It was interesting for a minute. Better not to bring a cue to a shotgun fight.

P.s. The pool hall guys cared enough to bring the cues back. Didn't drop them IIRC. Don't know if that is manly, crazy or they didn't have time to think about it.
