Hmm... that's funny
Cornbread Red was asked by a reporter how he made the cue ball
walk up a rail.He patted 'whitey' fondly and said "Ah raised it from
a marble."
LA circa 1967.....i was steered to a room for 5x10 snooker action.
When i walked in the old guy (well,he was in his 40's)was at the
snooker table and asked if i was looking for action.I looked at the
carom table and allowed as how i might play some of that.He wasn't
fooled about why i was there.He said "Sonny,did you ever hear of
the pool hustler who had to sleep in the sucker's barn?"
One of my favorites - John Sharpe out of Calgary.He claimed he
put so much spin on a cue ball that it set the cloth on fire and
burned down the pool hall (which naturally left a few hundred
pool players homeless.
