Pool Room Industry Trends

[TheCornerPocket]

Hello. I was wondering if anybody has information about industry trends related to the pool hall business? I'm looking for trends either for the last five years or so, or projections for the next five years or so. I got some information from the BCA reports, but not exactly what I was looking for. I've read almost every thread in the forum, and from how you other room owners are talking it doesn't look good, but do you have any credible resources, reports or surveys you can cite for industry trends? Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

In this economy I doubt any industry statistical data will have much value.
Rooms closing are increasing for a variety of reasons. More people are staying home to play and going out less.
IMO, trying to enhance what's happening in your local market should yield better results then making plans based on industry trends.
