RED BULL as a sponsor for pool.

The Tables are Already Green

Pot, where legal would be a great sponsor for pool. No joke. Johnnyt

The tables are green.

Gives "Putting money in the pot" a whole new meaning.

I'm sure soon there might be a growers consortium that would need to diversify their income for tax purposes.
Check and see if there are any in Colorado.

These are all copyrighted.......

"M" League

420 League

PPPP - Pot Puffing Pool Players League

PPPPP - Pro Tour

The "Green Room" would take on a whole new meaning

"The Mile Hi Pool League?"

It would be great. Since banks don't work with the cannabis industry all the payouts would be in cash, or product.

Come and win some long green.....

And meanwhile, Cleary with all of his great marketing experience working for a Fortune 500 company, sits on the sidelines, doing nothing but waving his hands and making monkey noises.........

In JoeyA's original post, he stated not to make jokes because marketing people don't like jokes.

I am a marketing person and all I do is joke. 90% of commercials on tv use humor to sell products.

I'm trying to say JoeyA doesn't have a clue what he's talking about... which was obvious by his amazing plan to capture the heart of a company who only sponsors extreme athletes and sports to sponsor the slowest moving game known to man. Make sense?

Don't Get It.

I know this is a really old thread but I just lol'd becase this is funny. I'm a director in the marketing dept for a fortune 500 company. My boss (head of marketing) and I spend most of our day making jokes.

Again, the problem with pool is the people in pool. They're clueless.

I still don't get your joke.
 
There was a post early on in this thread about how Red Bull had sponsored some team
in a cyber-gaming event. I can see that. Some of the gamers that are that serious will
play for 48 hours without a bathroom break surviving on Red Bull or Jolt, or RockStar
of some other energy drink.

So Red Bull sponsoring an event like that makes sense to
me. Now, I know some pool players will do the same thing in a 48 hours session, or poker
players, but I think these are guys that have been doing this since before Red Bull. They
are living on Jack, coffee, and cigarettes, and maybe a periodical Coke (or a line of coke).
Pool isn't really a Red Bull sport.

I could see Red Bull sponsoring maybe some "younger" amateur events where alcohol isn't
a big consumable or contributor. In spite of some of the opinions here sometimes, I could see
Red Bull partnering with The APA where the playing crowd is might still be thought of as
reasonably wholesome and Red Bull consuming
 
Lol.

If I had 5-10million dollars and 5-10 years to invest in pool, I could turn it around. Could be done with much less money but unfortunately it would take that much money for everyone to climb on board. Again, the problem with pool is the people in pool and the people who pull the strings all fighting against each other. And it won't change.

But I have a family and bright career ahead of me that's far more important to me. Pool, for me, is just fine. On any given weekend, I have 2-3 tournaments to play in within 30 miles from my house and I have a decent chance to win. So... sorry :/

Market away.......

Please help us (Billiards/Pool) by providing some ideas to help promote our mutual endeavor.

lol ok. I'll start by checking out an energy drink company that sponsors very fast adrenaline sports to pump money into the slowest game on earth. That's where I would start.

But sure, I'll waste my time. What do you do for a living... maybe you can waste all of your free time doing that for pool with 0% chance of a ROI.

You just said that you could turn pool around in your previous post, now you say 0% chance.

Not everything is based on short term ROI.

And..... we still haven't seen any of your marketing ideas.

Tapped Out?

I don't have to work..... I invested in Fortune 500 Stocks.

My Red Bull pool idea is this:

Have Venom do trick shots on a pool table while Travis Pastrana does donuts around it in a Rally Car...or perhaps motorcycle stunt jumps over it!

You're really having a hard time keeping up.

0% chance because I don't have 10 mil to invest. Really, you should have someone read and comprehend for you then break it down with colorful pictures.

But it's fun you think I'm full of shit. I wonder what your last/other AZ user name is.

Never said you are full of s*** . Please don't put words in my mouth.

Just asked for you to contribute.

But as another person said......

You are sitting on the sideline, waving your arms, making monkey noises.
 
Maybe if we get 100 more Naoyuki Ois going viral and a new Tom Cruise pool movie Red Bull would deign to sprinkle some magic money dust on the basket case that is professional pool.
 
New Pool Movie

Maybe if we get 100 more Naoyuki Ois going viral and a new Tom Cruise pool movie Red Bull would deign to sprinkle some magic money dust on the basket case that is professional pool.

Yes, Tom could play the same character in the present time 2017.

The movie could show the decline of pool rooms, bowling alleys, drive-in's and western civilization into what it is present day.

A reflection of America and what it stood for once.

Sort of like the movie "Bar Fly". I loved it's upbeat look at life.
