Flex said:Going there on business for a few days. Wondering if there are any good pool halls in the area. Any place known for action?
Is the Fast Eddies in Carlisle any good? What's it cost?
Any other places to play in Carlisle?
Thanks!

Omar said:Fast Eddie's is basically a college bar with four tables in the back room. They are either 3.5 x 7 or 4 x 8, can't remember. Nappy cloth. Big rock. Really loud music, at least on the weekends. No action.
I went there one Saturday shortly after I moved to Mechanicsburg. I asked the bartender for a piece of a chalk. She referred me to the bouncer. He made we wait for five minutes while the moron tried to figure out how his cell phone worked, and then told me there was nothing wrong with the piece that I had. I walked back to the table and started packing up my stuff. Haven't been back.

Action could be 24/7 depending on what truckers were there. A trucker that was a legit APA-6 offered to play me for $100 a game. He lasted 3 games. Some of the locals will drop by from time to time too.

Tracee is Randy's wife. They both play jam up pool and they're the nicest people you'll ever meet.kryptonite9 said:Hey JAM is Tracee related to Randy Clepper? We have a team that goes to Moose and FOE PA state tournaments every year. We have had many battles on the table with the Carlisle guys and usually end up hanging out with them all night. What a great bunch of guys.![]()
