I was at my buddy's upscale pool hall/lounge this past Saturday night. It's my favorite place to play and socialize. Typically, I'm not there on a Saturday night but he called wanting to play some 9 ball. We play on what is considered their pro table, not that it's particularly better than any of the other tables, it's more to do with where it is in the room and that it's convenient to tend to things that arise at the bar, take a phone call, etc. Also, you have a pretty good view of most of the room from there.
It was about 9:30, a live band was playing and it was a good crowd. At an adjascent table to where we were playing were three mid-twenties young men and they were acting a bit obnoxious, kinda like wannabe badasses. All three were wearing black baseball caps and black t-shirts with references to "Sons of Anarchy" which is a currently running tv show on FX network about a ficticious biker gang. So, I suppose they were 'in-character'.
Now it's 10:15 pm and who walks in the door? Five sequoia-tree-sized Hells Angels proudly wearing their leathers and colors. You just can't make this sh1t up! They were all in the 6' 3" - 6' 5" range and way up in the high 200's in weight (maybe low threes). They marched on in and bellied up to the bar and proceeded to have some drinks and a good time. The faux anarchists all were looking at one another and I can only imagine what they must have been thinking; 'Just our luck, the night we go out sporting our new "Sons of Anarchy" gear, and The freakin' Hells Angels show up? Are you kidding, what were the odds?'
This was priceless to watch. These three knuckleheads suddenly began acting like choir boys and never went back up to the bar for drinks, but rather, stayed in the corner and waited for the waitress to make her rounds. I do not believe they wanted the big dogs to critique their tv biker gang outfits.
:grin:
Just another night at the pool hall. :thumbup:
