A memory and item from Sang Lee--- at one of the BCA trade shows years ago, I noticed nobody but Sang was at Sang's sponsor's booth so I went over and we spent at least a half hour playing with him correcting me if I was taking the wrong shot. It was great. There was one of his sponser's mini pool ball key chain lying around and I asked if I could have it an he said it was their very last one and he seemed reluctant but gave it to me. Not sure if it was really their last one but that's ok. Then a few years later, he's gone but not forgotten. Also got a Helmstetter CCS cue.
Mine is the memory of attending the 3C World Championship in Bordeaux in 2016 and meeting the greatest players in the world, who were mostly very kind. And meeting Bert
And the food truck right outside the venue made some of the best burgers I've ever had

I remember that. You and a friend of yours were the epitome of appreciative fans, drinking it all in. I am glad you enjoyed the experience, and Bordeaux 2016 was a pretty great tournament! Best from the Netherlands.
confirmed !
I know I'm living in the past, but during the 1993 nationals I miraculously won a preliminary match agaist Sang Lee to help propel me to the finals. I have the original score sheet from that match (below) and a set of 3c balls used during that tourney. These are my prize 3c memories and items. (Thank you to my friend Jake Jacobs for the score sheet)!
I also cherish my Allen Gilbert book that Larry posted and Mister 100 that I got from mr3cushion.

Very nice Dave!
I can see how you would cherish that one. Well done.
Thank you. I went to the rest room after that game and cried lol.
Yes, that's one of my prize items. The first time I visited Dennis at his MI shop I saw that cue in his small cue rack and commented on it.
That question of course turned into a very long story over a few glasses of brown liquor. Which led to ....
For those that don't know, Dennis made this Travel cue for himself before he went back to visit Vietnam and the Philippines in 2005. The cue fits in a normal suitcase.
After Robert Byrne was inducted into the HOF, Dennis sent it to Bob and wrote on the cue in three places.
