Playing Pool While on Oxygen

[RogerChambers]

Hello All,

Due to a mis-spent youth smoking tobacco, I have developed emphysema and I am on constant oxygen. I am trying to adapt to using a backpack style oxygen bottle tote while playing pool and am wondering if there are any other players out there who are also on oxygen?

Any advice would be welcomed. :smile:

There was a local player that was on oxygen, his tank was on wheels. I would think that a backpack would be very awkward and could lead to back problems. Best of luck with your emphysema.

I don't have to deal with something like this, but don't they make them so you can have them on wheels on the floor also? I think anything on your back would tend to slide around and unbalance you. I did see someone shoot with one of those baby carriers on her back though and she seemed to be OK with that, but she was not a very good player and clearly had to stand up straighter that normal to shoot that way.

Pool players have been playing "on air" for years Hence, ye ol' "air barrel."
