Does Pool Have Groupies?

[Scaramouche]

Never seen a thread on this topic.

Lance Mackey, dog musher, winner of both the Iditarod and the Yukon Quest, back to back, was asked if sled dog racing has groupies:

"Oh, absolutely. They fly all over and chase us around. It's pretty cool, but I also wonder sometimes, why? Why?"

And for such a solitary sport he makes a point of mingling with the fans:

"Myself, I interact, I talk and entertain, so to speak. It's important to me to get the fans to like me, because without them, we wouldn't really have a sport."

NBA Players have it made...

Most pool rooms I have frequented did have it's share of groupies. We always used to joke about how they gravitated towards the guy who could draw the ball the farthest. lol
Talk about incentive to practice your stroke

Last October, at the Houston Open, I was in a match and made a great 2-9 combo to win a game. I heard someone say, "Nice shot Todd." I turned around and didn't recognize the woman who said it, so I smiled and turned to get ready for the next game.

I went over to my girlfriend and asked her if she recognized who she was. She turned to me and sarcastically said, "Awww. You're first pool groupie."

Technically, isn't that what "we" all are?

lol. Even if you won the overall at DCC, you've got a better chance of meeting women at the bowling alley across the street.

 

[smashmouth]

you know you really love a sport where the payoff offers little money, little fame, and no hot groupies

should have gone into bowling

 

[RunoutalloverU]

what about snooker?

Fat boys right again

Yes. not alot but a few, nothing like the NBA .

Fatboys answer is as close to thruth as I can see in reading this thread so far. I once lived with a world champion and believe me we had groupies. Or should I say he had groupies. They were beautiful. It was the 70's and California. Even guys followed him around. It was so bad it seemed we were never alone. Half the time we had wall to wall pool players on the living room floor and couches. All I did was feed them and yell at them to get out. Probably feeding them was a mistake. They kept coming back. We had to go at least 500 miles before we were totally alone. Even then they sometimes found us. Those were the days. I have a road player and his lady on my floor right now. I'm a softie, and I can cook. It's 28 degrees outside. Whats a girl to do??? Our groupies were usually broke and useless. A few could hustle in a spot. A few were good bodygaurds. They had their moments when the enterage (sp) came in handy.

 

[softshot]

why is it that when women follow men around and offer their bodies for days on end they are groupies... but when a man does it to a woman its stalking???

 

[RunoutalloverU]

Because ...
