Me too, I think it lights up when you shoot the ball. I was thinking of getting one an modifying it to shoot lights out. LOLz

That's the jen-u-wine Spider.
LOLz, I get that occasional clown.I had a guy call me an idiot last week because I would not install a screw-on tip/ferrule on his McDermott.

Wow, I never knew we played before. Next time say hello!:thumbup:
What about that rack thing that looks like two circles glued together? I don't know what it is, but it looks pretty stupid to me.

2005 US Open: Reyes vs Strickland

Efren uses a jump cue on about 22:10. There's nothing with jump shots or jump cues. I don't care what Earl Strickland says.

It's kind of goofy but, old timers might remember the pool apron! Made from felt with pockets in front to hold the chalk and tip tapper etc. Designed to keep your trousers clean when you lean across the table. Eliminates that chalk like across the upper leg area. Still have one somewhere around here.
What is you people's obsession with pool shoes?

Greatest post I've read so far this year......
I thought I'd be the first with the laser, but someone beat me to it..... can't believe nobody mentioned this one:
Here's a video of the Spider in action - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehcjHt7krhw
My vote has to go to the first-generation Spider. Using the Wayback Machine, here's what the Spider looked like in 2002 - http://web.archive.org/web/20021006031650/http://www.thespideronline.com/
You can learn aiming and scare your kids half to death at the same time.
No way. These simple things are way cool. Play league in bars there is no place for the cue to stand. Keeps the cue from falling over. Love mine.
Related to this I think the skeleton hand version of this is stupid.
I take exception to the Sardo, I use it all the time in my rec room. Practiced my break for 2 hours straight last month and couldn't do without it.
Green chalk and red chalk should be banned.
Red cloth and logoed cloth suck
Screw on tips
Another vote for the 9-ball rack, how about the 6-ball rack as well?
What about that product that was supposed to minimize the impact of the vibration of the cue. You put it on the butt. Can't remember the name but it was dumb!
SR
limbsaver.....come on it has to be good, it had a sponsor....lol
Oh yeah that was it, thanks.
Didn't we see it all over the US Open and few other large tournaments for a while. I never did see one in real life...lol
I'll conceived or not, that brand has won a heck of a lot of titles.
+1 on the 9-ball rack, complete junk.
How about the 6-ball butterfly trickshot rack? If you can't set that one up by hand you probably shouldn't be trying to impress the friends.

+1 to 9 ball racks and elephant balls.
As for gloves... I sweat, so for me, they are a Godsend. And it's always fun to smash on people when they make fun of it.
I was at the bar once and a guy who wanted to play told me to, "Take that gay glove to a gay bar." He kept quiet after I sunk the 8 leaving him with all his balls on the table. :thumbup:
I'm not good by any means, but some nights I just fall into stroke, now if only I could do that all the time...

Check out Rich Guyler(spelling?) at the action tables during BCA in May. He wears the apron and his signature hat while playing. I might add, you better bring your A game to beat him for the cash.
Sooo, that's a pool apron! I thought it was an apron but I wasn't too sure, when I was watching Jimmy Reid's DVD, I can't remember which one but it's the one that a lot of us bought dirt cheap (wholesome material!).He was wearing one!
How about those, little piece of square cloth you put undernearth the cueball when you break?! I can't figure that thing out. Is there a name for that? Anybody here uses that thing? I'm a newbie at pool, pls excuse my ignorance.
