Video - Willie Hoppe

What a great clip from Deno Andrews of the legendary Willie Hoppe!! Thanks for pointing us to it, Scaramouche. Willie's exhibition was not as polished and error-free as we've come to expect these days. But it was fascinating to see moving pictures of our great American champion. Unfortunately the popularity of billiards in the U.S. died along with Willie in the mid 1950's.

Good stuff, and nice to see Deno putting some old classics up for us to see. Wish there was some real action stuff of Willie though!
