Great Pool Room Stories

i liked corner pockets as they had pool rooms in towns that might never of had one. but their setup wasn't so conducive for hanging out and having people in them. which is what a poolroom needs. just like a bar. people dont stay in either when they are empty.
although a lot of that is promotion.
 
I liked the layout of the pool tables lower then the bar and tables/chairs for viewing. The angled mirrors were cool also. The tables played a little tight for the size of the pockets.
 
Knowing what I do know now one thing that would've been very beneficial would of been closed circuit TV in them so when they had Jimmy Moore or Grady Mathews there to play a exhibition match or even during a tournament so anyone sitting in the bar area could watch .
Since there wasn't any seating other than for the players around the tables .

Granted this isn't cheap to accomplish but in the long run it could pay dividends and help promote pool in general by making it readily available for YouTube for instance .
