I would have to drive at least an hour and a half to get to what I would consider a good pool room. It sucks.
I only live 25-30 minutes from Iowa City, IA and there isn't one single place up there I would consider a good pool room, just a bunch of places with poorly maintained, dirty bar boxes. It's a college town and I think a good quality pool hall/room would do well there. (If you build it, they will come. So somebody please come build one.
) Nothing to brag about in Cedar Rapids either.
At least I live in a small town that has a bar with three 8' Valley tables that are very well maintained (because I'm the one maintaining them). I think we have the best tables here in my home town for at least a 40-50 mile radius.
