Hi Folks,
This is (was) a real pool room, and I'm sorry to say I was told that it is closing down
at the end of the month. They had about 27 Gandy Big Gs, and two billiard tables.
No Booze, one working soda machine and a snack machine. Coffee was 50 cents,
and I think they still served hot dogs.
I doubt many folks here have ever been there, and although the equipment was old, it
was my favorite room in my area. About 20-30 years ago there were all kinds of "great"
players there, and I saw the women pros there about 20 years ago. It was pulled off
their tour shortly thereafter due to the equipment conditions.
Anyway, it had a lot of character, and I will miss it. I'm not sure where the closest
"old time pool hall" is now. I'm not even sure if there is one left at all in MA.
