Pro's who use Ginacues?

[Matt_24]

I was watching a 1993 semi-finals match between Mike Sigel and Johnny Archer last night. It was a superb match with tons of break and runs, great safeties, kicks, etc. It went to the hill and was never boring for a second. This was the old monster break/fast play/never miss 119lb Johnny Archer against Mr. Perfect Pool/Captain Hook Mike Sigel.

I was quite surprised to see Mike Sigel playing with a Ginacue. I guess when he first left Joss he was courted by Ernie to use a Gina? It was one of their stock models, but looked really good being used by a pro. Mike won that match and was running out from everywhere with it. It was a pleasure watching the Sigel of old. I know that Ed Kelly has always had that really gorgeous ivory boxed Gina. Can anyone name other pro's who use or used a Gina? Just curious.

Thanks.

Fong Pang Chao used to use a Ginacue. I am not sure if he does now. There is a young Japanese woman who plays on the IPT and she uses one.

I think Tony Stewart bought himself and Shannon Daulton one last year at the Derby City.

Wait a minute! I just played that guy. He told me his name was Peter or something. He did have a great break!

Lou Ferrigno

I went to high school with his son. Lou Sr. would come by campus at least once a week. He was an absolute monster. His arms would be popping out of his shirts like crazy. All the moms at my school would stare at him. lol. It was a funny sight. I can't imagine him playing pool either...
