Very standard Simonis green. Don't remember if they were calling it Tournament Green then.

ROFL Are we getting old?
For those that don't know but pool tables use to be that color before all the choices now.

If that's standard Simonis Green it's way, WAY lighter than standard Simonis Green today.
Unless the 10 megaton lights above it made it look WAY lighter.
AZ has come to this. Wow. Asking questions about cloth used 23yrs ago on a video no less. 
Seriously, whatever color it is/was you really think a video, even a good one, is going to give exact hue as if you were standing next to it? And yes the tv lights have a big effect on how we see the color. Agree with previous poster, its just basic Simonis green. https://www.simoniscloth.com/color-styles/ Click Simonis green here, looks exactly like whats on that vid. The other greens they offer are quite different.

Amazing
And the camera quality then was poor too, vs today.

Green so much nicer than blue, the only color I will ever have on my table. You'll also never see a brown 7 or a purple 5 either!

Blue isn't that bad ... Green is traditional and preferred

The orange 5 ball is a must .... Fatboy would probably approve

And the standard Simonis Green in your link is way, WAY lighter than the standard Simonis Green I had on my table awhile back.
The standard Simonis Green that I have seen is really dark. That's why I prefer the Apple Green.
I have a friend down a few houses down the street, he’s had the same 860 in his table since he installed it in 2002. It’s much thicker, darker and slower than new simonis. More wool, less nylon. Cost more to make-connect the dots…..so it goes

In that baize?

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that ping.
It will if you put 17 high pressure sodium lights above it will... IDK, I remember high pressure sodium lights having an amber tint, TV lights then, whatever they were.
