Shady characters

I was in a pool hall on 42nd Street in Chicago. There was a big guy there named Jim and he could play some pool. One day we are all playing and this guy walks in and says loud enough, "my name is Slim, I played Jim last week and he took all my money and I come to get it back". We told him to be careful, Jim was quite the bada$$ but he insisted. Jim came in and Slim commenced to cutting him. Every part of that man's body was bloody except the soles of his fit.

After that we sang:

You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim
 
I am wondering whats some of the worst things you have seen come out of some so called shady people around pool. I know where I am from back in Ga. there is a guy named Billy Sikes who makes Earl Strickland look like the nicest guy in the world as far as crying about different things go, and who not only would throw you in the river but put his foot on top of your head to make sure the job gets done. It is people like him that give pool such a bad rep in the minds of people who dont know stand up guys like Scott Rabon who take pool very serious and deserve sponsorships and cant get them. My hat is off to the people who promote integrity in pool such as Scott and maybe one day the good will out weigh the bad...:smile:

I'm just curious, if your hat is off to people who promote integrity, why do you ask everyone here to post about shady people?
 
Peanut you say your in georgia? Well if you ever go to Player's in Columbus dont ever try to play a guy that works there by the name of Ricky. He plays good but he wont ever match up unless he has the immortal nuts! He is a smooth talker let me tell you. His favorite thing to do is bet soldiers cant beat the 6 ball ghost when he knows they cant run 3 balls. Sleaziest piece of sh*t I ever met. I did learn alot from his as* holish ways
