I kind of knew that amateur players would make up the bulk of pool culture, but the demographics taken as a whole so far are kind of interesting.

I'm not sure what the plus or minus would be in this poll, but with pool room owners being 2 and professional players being 8, it is no wonder that professional pool experiences difficulties rising in popularity as far as attracting new non-pool-related sponsors, much like the WSOP and poker has today.

Pool seems to be supported from within its own culture, from pro players paying entry fees, to pool room owners donating their rooms and adding monies to events, tournament directors/promoters donating their time and monies, pool industry members adding monies to high-profile events, et cetera, I wonder if there is a way to target this mass audience of amateur players that would help elevate pool in popularity. Leagues seem to be the best vehicle today.
