We opened Monoski's Billiards in Montoursville, PA on June of 1987 with four 9' Gold Crown Pool tables. A few of the regulars back in the day were Jimmy and Yale Mamolen, Don Remaley (known as the landscaper), Curt Guyette and Leo Temple. Many a young teen learned by watching these great players.

After a few months we started selling cue sticks and cases. Over the years we kept expanding until we were supplying most of central PA with indoor gaming equipment.

Our business was never like work because we were providing a service that made people happy. It was always fun helping customers design their "Man Caves" and they didn't have to twist Tom's arm to put on a trick shot exhibition. He always wowed them with his amazing trick shots.





Players from the past that have walk through this pool hall and played will never be forgotten. If you have been here at one time or another, I think it would appropriate to give a call to Monoskis and let Tom and Sandy know your story. They were great owners and love to hear stories of the old days! This place was my second home and it will be surely missed!

Hate to see Monoski's close. I have known Tom since the 1980's when I played in his straight pool tourneys and more recently playing in the Williamsport Open tournaments. Even though I live about 2 hours away and did not get to visit his room as often as I would have liked, I looked forward to the Williamsport Open each year. Tom and Sandy have a first class operation and they are a tribute to the pool industry. Wishing the best for Tom & Sandy.
