What are talking about pool isnt a game, I tell you my friends and I played nearly every saturday night and sometimes in the week in the Gables, men would always get really pissed off at us if we played and won, women were not expected to plat pool at all and if we won,then it was either the fact that we distracted the men by bending over the pool table(how were we other wise to play)or we cheated,god forbid we won because we actually could play.We won a lot,some men especially after having too much to drink would have to be restrained from really loosing their temper and hitting us.......What a joke,a man built like a brick-house having to hit a woman because its easier to accept than loosing at pool!!!!
