This is what happened a couple weeks ago. Our city has a city APA tournament to determine the 2 teams that will go to Vegas from our area. I think about 22-23 teams were involved. They play each night, in various locations.

On our first night of the tournament, I played first. About 2-3 games into the match, I looked over at one of the teammates of the gentlemen I was playing. He was making jestures at his throat, and I thought he was choking. I stopped shooting and yelled, "He's chocking" and a group went over to check on him. I annouced in the poolhall if anyone was a doctor or nurse we need help. No response and asked the Poolroom manager to call 911. The room is back off the main road a little and I said I would go out and flag the ambulance in.

A nurse on my team (didnt know she was a nurse) came over and started working on him. I flagged in (2) different police cars, and eventually the ambulance. Unbelievably the police cars had no first aid kits, and the ambulance was actually a firetruck. Anyway the parametics get there and take over the recovery. They actually shocked his heart 3 times in the pool room and then another 4 times in the parking lot.

After about 1 1/2 hours, they eventually get him to the hospital 5 miles away. The nurse on our team, went to the bathroom, threw up, and then layed down in her car shaking. Some of their team went to the hospital.

Here is the good spot. The poolroom owner calls the APA LO and tells him what had just happened. He tells them that both teams are pretty shook up and maybe it would be best to postpone completing this match.

THE LO TELLS THE POOL ROOM MANAGER, IF ANY TEAM ISNT PREPARED TO CONTINUE IT WILL BE A FORFIET. :mad:

We do continue, eventually win. But talk about being out of it. I felt so sorry for the other team.

We later found out the guy had a heart attack, and was going to be okay. They said that the nurse on our team had saved his life. (We were so proud) and that she was going to get an award.

How is that for excitement?

Wow.............................

I mean really. WOW.

mark this on a calender, I'm officially lost for words.
 
Yes the LO is a heartless ****. Cheers to the nurse. Good nurses save more lives than doctors. Johnnyt
 
i hear and read WAY too much about APA LO's it seems to me that these jerk offs are only about money and i feel the only way to doany good is to take money out of their pockets. whether it is this story or LO's raising peoples handicaps so they have to build another team. I just wish the APA would just go away. I ve played on 2 different BCA leagues and never heard these type of complaints. there will always be sandbagging when it come to handicap leagues and that sucks. but the APA seems to bring in the cream of the crop of cheaters. it seems. Glad to hear the guy is OK, nice to hear a good outcome
 
What is the name of this APA LO? What was the date of this event?

Why do we keep seeing posts like this without any hard data to verify the story?

Are you the one that phoned the LO? Hard to believe the LO wouldn't be at least one tournament location while matches going on. Did you hear the words spoken to the LO? Did you hear the response directly from the LO?

Not saying your story is anything less than the truth but there might be a detail or two you neglected to include.

Specific details, please. So we can all know what happened.

I don't care if the details are exactly what happened, I believe we got enough information to KNOW that this LO is a heartless d*ckhead. If that match continued, which obviously it DID, then the LO HAD to be responsible for THAT, and to him/her I say SHAME ON YOU !!! Something, anything, could have been worked out by enough brainstorming minds that would have been better than what happened.

The point is no one knows exactly what happened on the phone with the LO other than the bar owner.

It would be nice to hear what the LO has to say for himself.

The bartender may have said that one teams player got dragged out by the police and the other team has someone in the bathroom throwing up and they don't want to finish today. Or maybe that's what the LO heard. Wouldn't be the first time something like that happened.

Names and locations would help here.

What hard data would you beyond my word?:angry: As far as my location,,,,,upper right. :rollingeyes:

No the poolroom owner called the LO.( mentioned above)

There were probably 8-10 locations (bars) that was going at the same time. The LO was possibly at another one, or home having a beer, nevertheless he wasnt there at the time, and did not come there before the 5th match getting over past midnight.

So did any of the team captains call the LO? Just curiouse why the Bar owner called him, or is that how it works in the APA?

It is the way the APA is set up that causes the sandbagging. People that play in the APA are no different than people that play in the BCA. And, it's according to where you live, lots of people only have the APA to play in.
 
"What hard data would you beyond my word? As far as my location,,,,,upper right. :rollingeyes:"

Hard data like the LOs name, the name of the location owner that made the phone call, the name of the location, the city, the date, the name of the player, names of the two teams. Hard data like that. Then we would be glad to take your word for it. (eyes not rolling)

An LO can only be in one location at a time so a lot of situations have to be handled over the phone. My city tournament round one matches were held at 18 locations around my county, as we do not have a location big enough to handle that much activity on one night.

Glad you won that match, though.

He's from Missouri, you gotta show him.
 
Personally the LO's behavior on this is borderline criminal. No names need be mentioned. I believe you Ken. So should everyone else. You have nothing to prove. I would have both the team captains lodge a protest with the national office. I would waste the bucks and have a petition signed by all participants siting the callouse action. And I would have a lawyer draw up a letter of protest. I'd send it to the national headquarters and be sure that someone there had to sign for the letter.

That action is bullsh#t. I don't like using words like that on forums. But this is unforgivable, period. The match could have been postponed to the next day. Hell something that serious he should have been in his car and hurrying there. I am still stunned. I just cannot concieve of this. He needs a blanket party. This has me so upset I'm gonna end this post before I totally loose it. You Ken deserve kudo's for this. I'm proud of you.

Took the words out of my mouth. This LO is disgusting.
 
" ... No names need be mentioned. I believe you Ken. So should everyone else. You have nothing to prove..."

I don't believe you people. What a bunch of zombies.

Please keep bashing the APA. It's good for growth of the league.
