This is the most incredible thing I've seen in a while. Mary Avina put this table up ALL BY HERSELF starting in the garage and moving everything without a dolly or any help at all.

Of course I would have helped, but was in London trying to help the USA Team win the Mosconi Cup. I was amazed when I got home and the table was set up. This is the table we made the Touch of Inside Video on and it's also the table Earl Stickland ran the 11 racks in a row to win the Million Dollar Challenge.

We're getting ready to release another video filmed on this same table 'Banking T.I.P.$.' so of course the rails are banking very well, thanks to Mary and my friend Jeff Serrell that came in and re clothed the table before the TIPS VIdeo was shot.

This is indeed a historic table, just wanted to share this video, it's entertaining.

I just had my table moved and set-up so I'm real familiar with what's involved and this is amazing to see her set-up a GC up by herself! That's an amazing video!

Good Lord :eek:

That was incredible. I think each of those slates weighs something like 100 lbs.

Those 5 Hour Energy drinks really work.:wink:

Thanks for sharing

Great video... one things for certain.. my pockets were shimmed just by watching her set up the table.. :p

Good job

I was VERY impressed with how she handled the slates by herself. I used to be able to do that in my younger days. Next time tell her to lay the rail skirts on the ground, not stand them up on their end. They won't fall that way. :grin:
 
Just a guess John as I know nothing about table mechanics, I think those pieces of slate
Are a bit more than 100 lbs.

She still had to get them onto drop sheet, wiggle them over to the table and then tilt them
up.

In my younger days, I would have been able to do that. I'd be panting now.
 
it's amazing what our minds can conceive our body's can achieve.

Did she levitate it from the garage to the inside location. I'm calling BS on that, CJ. :D

I'm not kidding, when I left for London the table's slates were in the garage.

It is amazing, and I've seen her do it. Mary Avina uses the same principles that the Egyptians used where they could move HUGE stones using smaller ones to balance and turn them on. It's all about balance, leverage, physics and a lot of creativity and will power.

She said there was a couple of times then she thought the slates were going to fall and felt that "panic feeling" and managed them into place. This is more about mental strength in my opinion, it's amazing what our minds can conceive our body's can achieve.

"I'm not kidding, when I left for London the table's slates were in the garage." That part I believe. As to the rest... :rolleyes:

Those are "real eyes". :D
 
I looked down and there was this farly large snake slithering towards the pool table

]Can she bait her own fish hook too? Definitely a keeper. :thumbup:

I don't know about that, but the first time she came to my house in Dallas I bought some big plants and a snake was in one of them. I looked down and there was this farly large snake slithering towards the pool table.

Mary grabbed a sword and without hesitation chopped it in half, then cut it's head off to make sure it couldn't still bite us.

I was right in between shocked, and impressed.....and a bit concerned. ;) From that point on I was the FIRST one to arm myself with the sword...or any other available weapon. :thumbup:

Mary Avina has never met a stranger

You are a lucky man CJ!

yes, I've met a lot of characters, both male and female, but Mary's in a league all to herself. Mary Avina has never met a stranger and if I have something to do I can just drop her off ANYWHERE that has a pool table and she'll be happy as can be.

That means a biker bar, redneck pool room, Mexican Bar, Asian Pool Room, etc. I used to do this for money, but she does it strictly for fun. What a gift, and her reward is to see and make other people happy and she's batting 100% from what I've seen.. 'The Game is the Teacher'.com
 
Love the Shiba Inu!

Tell Mary I love her work on the table... and the Shiba is super CUTE!!!! We have 4 of those stupid dogs!
