Late as usual, but wanted to express my appreciation to all the people who made this SBE one to remember. I'm sure I'll forget some people so I apologize in advance. How about Andy Gilbert's beard, I kept wanting to take a black sharpie to it. Nothing like talking wrap techniques with Martin and then realizing Kenny Koo is standing there. Having to wade thru, Barry, Pete Sr., Art, Mike Bender, and Bill Shick, just to get to the rest room. Cornerstones booth was quite the gathering place. Getting to put faces with names, like Alton, Mark Sevelli, seeing Mike Mason again. I think Marcus holds the land speed record for going from one end of the show to the other, the man never stops. Talking Balabushka's with Mark K. and Joe from Pool Table Magic. Seeing Troy and Jamie again. Lee(Brianna), for introducing me to Paul Mottey. Memorable sights, Showman, Searing and Jimbo, taking up the majority of a hall way. Seeing Richard Black and Tim Scruggs get richly deserved awards. Sometimes the long hours in the shop can start to wear you down, but then you remember the kind words of someone who's eyes light up when they hold one of your cues. Suddenly life is good. Here's some pics of my skulls cue. Something different for me.
