Heading to Louisville...

I'm going to be working this week at Fort Knox in Kentucky, so I'll be in the Louisville and Elizabethtown area. Anyone have any suggestions where I might play some pool? Bonus points if they have good food, although I'd rather play good pool and be hungry.
 
I haven’t been there, but I think the place to go is Railyard Billiards. I intend to get there at some point.
 
Yes, Railyard was the only pool hall I know of in Louisville. There were other places around town but seemed like bar boxes.
I believe Elizabethtown may have a pool room also.
 
I’m almost certain there is a pool room in Elizabethtown and of course Railyards in Louisville. I haven’t been to either myself so I don’t have any firsthand experience.
 
Neat thing about Railyard is that it’s like a pool hall in a pool hall in a pool hall. I only found the first room when I was there. As I was getting ready to leave I walked past the dart area and stumbled into a room bigger than the first. Then I made my way through that room and found yet another just as big. Blew my mind. It’s bigger on the inside like a Tardis.
 
Looks like I'll be at Railyard in Louisville on Tuesday and Friday and Thunder Road in Elizabethtown on Wednesday and Thursday, if anyone wants to play some games. I hear they like to bank the balls in Kentucky? That sounds complicated, pool is hard enough already!

Fort Knox. That's pretty cool in and of itself.

Next week onepocket.org is holding a 1pocket tournament at Railyard.

It’s a members only thing but there will be an open banks mini Thursday the 4th should you feel the need to donate to the local bumps specialists.

I don't mind losing, I just don't like giving it away.

Next year I might try to be dead money in that. But it will probably be somewhere else. I will have to get to Railyard sometime

Open bank tourn in Ky when the one pocket guys are there? I know I’d be giving it away but I’d enter I think. That will be a fun tournament unless you expect to win. 😁

I agree, the show would be worth the price of admission!
 
There used to be a bordello in Louisville at 626 Breckenridge 60 years ago. I’d be curious re: what exist there now,
 
In Elizabethtown your options are somewhat limited.

The American Legion at 1251 Ring Rd Elizabethtown, KY 42701. They have two 8-foot tables.

Hot Shot Vapes and Smoke Shop 1006 N Mulberry St, Elizabethtown, KY 42701. They have two 9-foot tables (may have three 9-footers now as they were supposed to be getting another). $5/hour

In Radcliff just off of the Fort Knox base there is a place called Gold Bars Billiards and Games, 881 North Dixie Blvd Radcliff, KY 40160. They have three 7-footers. Don't know their hourly rates.

In Flaherty (a bit further out from Fort Knox) there is Otter Creek, good bar food, cold beer, worn out 7-foot bar boxes. Also there is a place called Artie Rays but I haven't played there. Have been told they have decent tables.

Can't help with Louisville. Haven't played at them but have heard of these places. There is another place also but I can't get the name in my head:

Railyard Billiards & Sports Pub

630 Barret Ave, Louisville, KY 40204

This is very helpful! I'll be staying in Radcliff, so I'm kind of between all of them. I'll try a new place every night!

Word is, There’s a private room with four 9’ tables about 20 minutes south of Louisville. 1minute1pocket on onepocket.org posted about it.
