Grady, thanks for everything you've done for pool. Happy birthday and happy new year!
A better question than how old Grady is, might be, how many times has Grady been married ? Does anyone know the answer to this besides Grady ?Grady said:Thanks, everybody for the nice words. Here are a couple of stories about my age.
One time during my single years, I was doing an exhibition somewhere and it was one of those nights where everything went perfectly. I made all my shots, I ran eight racks on the best local player and there was an attractive lady with no wedding ring on her hand, who watched the whole show. When the demonstration was over she approached me and said, "May I ask you a question?"
"Sure," I responded
"How old are you?" she queried.
"Fifty Three," I told her.
"Oh s---, I bet my girlfriend you were over 70." So I didn't bother hitting on her.
When Randi and I went to England about five years ago, they had an over and under private betting pool on my age of 68. Of course I was only 59.
The most asked non-pool question I get is about my age. Well, that doesn't bother me. I'm just glad to still be here and in good health.
I'll see you tomorrow at the DCC, everyone who is attending.
