I was wrong
I've often said I never saw an exotic parked outside a pool hall. Also said you could tell a pool player because his case and cues were worth more than his car. Yep, earlier today, I was proven wrong.
A guy walked into the cue ball. Asked to see Jim, the owner. He was there to look at a classic Brunswick Centennial Jim has for sale. The table was a no sale, although they did talk for a spell.
All this time Cindy & I playing at our usual table, so not involved...
But the guy did arrive and leave in a new Maclaren....so yep, I was wrong. I never actually saw the car, but Chip the counter guy showed us photos he'd taken on his smart phone...
On 2nd thought, I was right! I've still never seen an exotic parked outside a pool hall. I sure did hear about it though.
