If Ronnie Allen is making a comeback, a match with him and Artie would really
be something.I would pay good money for that dvd,if it had a player review
with some old war stories thrown in it would be worth more.
It would not matter who won or lost,it would be the best 1 pocket dvd you could get,Freddy has the banks taken care of,Ronnie and Artie have the chance to do the same with 1 pocket.
I think it would be a good learning tool and I need all the help I can get.
Does anyone else think this would be good for the game
I no back in my time the game people always talket about for 30 years was Ronnie PLaying Bugs And Me playing Ronnie and Bugs and me playing. Well I played Bugs about 25 times and Ronnir and Bugs played 3 times.
And me and Ronnie played O times. Milwakie was the only time we were going too play. And we both loved the game. Ill repeat it we both loved the game.
And AS far as I am concerned. I had no problem giving the champions the breack. And I didnt see no other player giving the breack too the champions.
And Ronnie had his own balls his own cue ball. And he even picket the table. Thier was only one problem. Ronnie couldnt get a backer. THats why we didnt play.
And MY backer had at least 50 thousand dollaers on him. And we would have played. And I no it would have been a classick. Because you dont her too often that both players loved thier game.
But we will never no witch player would have loved it the most. And Ronnie loved going too tournements. And I never realy ran into him but once or twice.
Even when he was Chicago I never seen him. I seen him in Johnson city with all those great players. But I was with Mexican Johny and Johny asket everyone for one ball in banks nineball and one pocket.
And he couldnt get anyone too play him. And Johnny was intitled too a spot. And I played like 25% under Johnnys speed back then. I could have gotten 2 balls from Johnny the way I played then.
BUt all the great players were thier. Taylor Whimpy Chriss Mageean Bassals. Danny Delaberto Jersy Red. Joe Spath Marcel Camp Hubert Cooks Earl Hissler Corn Bread REd Danny Jones Cicero Murpy. All Miller THey sure had a lot off world beaters.
And My Friend played Wiennie Bennie Knock Rummy. Frank Garcia. I was in with Frank. And he won. And If I would have played close too my top speed off one pocket.
I could have made a good score.And I forgot Minnesota Fats. And Sammy Blumental. And Horace he wanted too Arm ressel.
And Lenny beat Jansco on a golf prop. And Jansko had that one pocket prop.So many balls in so meny tries. Harold Worst had the highest number too shot at.
I think it wa 26 or 27 . But I forgot. And I even forgot how many chances they would get. I think it was 5 but In not sure. ..
And I loved FAts stories the best. He could make a dying man laugh.
