As the pool industry mourns the loss of Grady, I thought it would be neat to start a thread honoring him with some stories. Any one have some they wish to share?
I have told this before but here gos.
At "The Ballroom" a large pool room in Toms River NJ Grady came to visit the owner Tony who was a friend of his. Grady wanted to practice straight pool for an up coming tournament. I was the best straight pool player available so we played for several hours and had a great battle. Grady was very entertaining and funny. Several times he used words that I was unfamiliar with and I had to get an explanation.
Now I cherish the short time I spent with him even more.
Grady was practicing for that world straight pool event they used to have up in nyc,iam guessing,were he finished pretty good more then once,i will say it again GRADY will go down in history as possiablly the best all around player of all time,he did play all games at a very high level!and gamble his own money just as good or better then anyone ever in the game,the man would bet!
