One pocket player 94 years young........

[Big Jim]

There is a gentleman one pocket player age 94 that suits up and shows up
and plays one pocket regularly for the cheese at Jack's pool hall in New Albany, Indiana just across the river from Louisville. Chuck Walters is his name. He is from Louisville originally and used to run a pool room many years ago.
I heard about a 85 year old man robbing everybody playing one pocket in New albany. I made a special trip to that room 9 years ago to see who this man was. He's still doing it, drives himself also.
Hang in there Chuck. I've known him for 40 years or so.
