Where did you first get the bug that drove you to pool???? Mine was in 1964 in a park across from Charter Oak High in W. Covina,Cali. where they had carrom boards & weekend tournys.

It was the carrom board for me too, when I was about 8 or so in the mid to late 50s.

There were other games that could be played on that board but the carom game was my favorite. My first encounter with a pool table wasn't until a few years later and it was love at first sight.

For those unfamiliar with a carrom board.
