I have received payment from 13 of the 15 and one payment is "in the mail." The only one I have been unable to contact is wayfastwhitey. There are two "alternates" for the raffle (cuebuilder and akrick), so even if wayfastwhitey doesn't show up, we will have a full slate of 15 names for the raffle. If anyone knows how to contact wayfastwhitey, please do so and tell me to contact me.

On Monday evening I will post the final list of the fifteen names eligible for the raffle.

Details on how the raffle will be determined are here: http://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=79922

What would be cool is if we can get a camera man to video some of the dinner and interviews during and after the dinner, editing it will be a bit of work but well worth the effort. I'm going to be buying a high quality video camera soon so I will bring it if we can pull it off, it we can find someone to shoot the video and edit it. Can you imagine watching a video of the ledgends from 40 years ago? All the different personalitys? this dinner will have the charcters etc for that, i'm sure the resteraunt will allow it to be shot.

Pat Fleming of Accu-Stats will probably be around and may offer to help on that project. This reminds me of a project that Freddy Bentivegna and I tried to put together where we were going to grab as many old-timers as we could at Derby City and have them tell their very best stories. One idea we had was that when a story involved a dramatic shot on a pool table, the video would cut to a sequence where the pool shot would be seen being made by an anonymous pro player. The format was going to be 5-6 old-timers sitting around trading stories and would involve some woofing/bantering back and forth between them. We put quite a few ideas together, but this was back when Freddy had just had knee surgery and it just never got off the ground. Maybe we could revive some of those plans. Email me at billporter@fuse.net and I'll see if I can dig up some of the stuff we put together.
