At the Derby a few years ago, one vendor closed his booth at around 2:00AM. The place had been empty for a while. He then noticed an "It's George" leather case leaning against the wall by his booth. So he took it up to his room. Inside the case were:
1/ A gorgeous Dennis Searing Cue
2/ A mint, top of the line Predator cue
3/ Some cash
4/ Some other accessories
5/ Lastly, the fun stuff
The fun stuff were immediately flushed down the toilet.
The next day, he noticed a guy walking around zombilly (if there is such a word), looking around like he was looking for something.
"Are you looking for something?", asked the vendor.
"Yeah, I am looking for my case," answered the guy.
He was then asked to describe the case, everything inside it. He described it to the T. The case was given back to him with everything in it, except the fun stuff. He was informed that they were flushed down the toilet last night.

Good stories here and I think I've told this story before.
One late night, I was held up at gun point in a restaurant parking lot and the two thieves got my money and cue case.
I started driving around to all the pool rooms and bars as sometimes thieves will try to unload the stolen goods quickly.
I had been to 6 or 7 places when on a fluke decided to check at a hole in the wall bar just down from a pool room.
Upon entering, I saw a friend of mine named Big Al and when he saw me he said, "You lose something?" with a big smile on his face.
Ends up, the two thieves picked the wrong place to try to sell my cues as Al recognized my stuff and took it away from them.
After that, Big Al never has to buy a beer if I'm around! LOL
