Earl Strickland Challenge Matches

Even though you're having technical difficulties, I still appreciate what your trying to do tonight. Thanks.
 
Sorry guys. We didn't find out about the problem until too close to the event. We thought we had a chance right before it started, but the solution ended up taking down our network, cash register and all. Since we couldn't let that happen, we had to abandon our efforts.

We will get this resolved the right way in the next couple of days.

Again sorry about this.

On the bright side, the challenge matches went great. Earl played 36 people and only 3 won. Not bad for a race to 2, especially considering that about 75% of the field were strong players.

Earl was a perfect gentleman throughout, signing every autograph requested and taking a picture with every oppnenant. Thank you Earl.
 
The three winners of the challenge matches were:

  • Mike Preston
  • Lay Thammavong
  • David Watts
Look for the "I Beat Earl Strickland" plaque that will be permenatly displayed at Gate City Billiards Club. I hope to run more of these challenge matches soon and add more names to the plaque.

Thanks to all that attended. We raised at least $2,700 for Lynn and Kaelyn, pending the final auction price of Earl Stickland's cue (see thread at http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=144968)
 
Looks like everybody had a lot of fun, wish I could have been there. Good luck with the auction, and my hopes and prayers are for full recovery for the beautiful little girl.
:p
