Update on the Des Moines pool scene

They're taking a big hit, what with the water delay and all.

I'm gonna try my best to frequent the place and help make it the best pool hall in the midwest.

Does anyone know, are they adding a kitchen with real food ?

Gotta pay for the new place somehow. I predict closer to $20 a night IF they still do that and a reach around from the bartender depending on the type of drinks you buy throughout the night.

Not sure that is in the business plan...:embarrassed2:

Any pictures?? No one has sneaked in to take a look??

Is my over bet on the last date for open still good?

Inquiring minds...
 
What options are there for league pool in Des Moines? I recently moved back and played APA in Texas. I'll probably end up joining an APA team as I have a friend looking for some players, but was wondering what other options there are and any comments on any of them.

Thanks in advance!
 
Probably hasn't changed since you left.

ISPA(Former BCA), Valley, TAP, East Side, APA, etc.

You can play Valley, ISPA, Midwest, ACS all combined in one league now. Seems to be a popular choice. Thursday nights -- I think there is a Monday session too.

Probably enough choices to play every night of the week and then some...

Welcome back, but I have to ask WHY lol?! Texas.... Iowa..... Texas........ Iowa....TEXAS

If you play my fiance who is a 5 don't take it easy on her. She needs to start learning to play fking shape for crying out loud to be able to compete at that level!
 
Is there a good website for any of these leagues (specific to DSM area)? I know for APA and maybe others the national site will give you contact info at least, but I'm looking for nights/locations that might be included on a local website.

I didn't play leagues before I left, so I don't really know what's out there. There was APA, BCA and TAP down there. And I just couldn't do without the snow/cold. :D
 
Bump

Swung thru Big Dog parking lot couple nights ago. Looks like they have a lot done but a lot to complete.

Maybe soon.

IF you haven't been to the ISPA site -- Check out the forum and vote in the poll. OR leave a comment on what you would like to see at ISPA 2013 in Des Moines.
