scubaron Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 @scubaron I used to play at Corner Billiards which is now the current Amsterdam. You name it, I've had it at one point or another. Southwest, Tascarella, Hercek, Skip Weston, Prewitt, Fanelli, etc. I rarely play these days. Only when I get a new cue in, I take it somewhere and shoot around for it a bit just to figure out if I plan on keeping it or not. That's about it. Love the game, just don't have the time for it and in Manhattan, it's super expensive to play. I love how cues are made and working with a maker in designing one. Cool. How many cues in your current collection ? Any pictures you don't mind sharing. Everything is more expensive in Manhattan. Send me a message if you want to play. As an Amsterdam league player, I get perks on table time.

polliwog Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I was joking about meeting up around Times Square. Times Square is one of my least favorite places in the world and I'd rather not hang out at all than hang out around there. I used to be convinced I hated New York - it turns out that always arriving at the Port Authority bus terminal and walking through or around Times Square to get to my destination were 95% responsible for that feeling.

Pugilist Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 This thread got weird! While I enjoy all the chatter, am I correct that me, @Graeme, @Fala and @ironchef (and various partners) are the only people actually meeting up?

MrsGougeTheEyes Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I obviously still don't know how this thing works so I understand if you'd like to leave me home.

gougetheeyes Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 @Fala @Pugilist @Graeme @ironchef did you guys all decide on Manhattan? Sundays could be fun at the NoMad bar on 28th.. I hear it's usually pretty quiet (as opposed to the crazy weekdays). I think they close at 8 on Sundays so we could grab one or two there and head somewhere else for food? @MrsGougeTheEyes care to weigh in?

Pugilist Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I think Manhattan would be ideal if anyone was coming in from NJ, but if not (so far no Njers have piped up), then we would be equally cool with Manhattan or Brooklyn, and trust you locals to pick a cool spot!

Fala Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 We're up for whatever is best for the group. Staying in Brooklyn would be fantastic though ;) Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/5423-ny-lsters/?page=3#findComment-104883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsGougeTheEyes Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Sounds like we're staying in Brooklyn! Are most people in South Brooklyn? If we're the only north BK peeps we can come down to you since we have a car and getting around is a pain in the arse. I just have no ideas for a spot because I'm never in that neighborhood.

Fala Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 We are in northern Brooklyn too @MrsGougeTheEyes, and we also have a car. If ya'll wanted to hang at our place, we're up for hosting.

ironchef Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Coming from Manhattan so shouldn't be an issue for me if there are train stops close by. Just let me know when and where.

Graeme Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 @Pugilist @Graeme - what are you in the mood for, or really like to drink/snack on? This probably isn't very helpful, but we're both really easy going when it comes to food and drink. I prefer places with good beer, but I'm not especially picky about that, especially seeing as how most places serve up good stuff these days. Good company is the most important part of it anyway.
