That's for a Sydney one, but the picture below shows a range for
the whole A-League, kosher or knock-off? - never seen any Phoenix
pool cues in the club shop.
If they tried to stop you bringing the pool cue into the
Ring of Fire you could just quote one of my favourite lines from a
movie.......
Begbie from Trainspotting saying "At the end of the day....I'm
the c*nt with the fookin pool cue...!!!"
Brilliant
I've got a t-shirt that has Begbies version of the story on the
front, then Tommys on the back.
Bought during university - so only fits my drawer now.
The joys of IMDB
Begbie:
Picture the scene: The other f**kin' week there, doin' the f**kin'
Volley with Tommy, playing pool. I'm playing like
Paul-f**kin'-Newman by the way. Givin' the boy here the tannin' of
a lifetime. So it comes to there, during the last shot, the
deciding ball of the whole tournament. I'm on the black and he's
sittin' in the corner looking all f**kin' biscuit-arsed. When this
hard c**t comes in. Obviously f**kin' fancied himself, like. Starts
staring at me. Lookin' at me, right f**kin' at me, as if to say,
"Come ahead, square go." You ken me, I'm not the type of c**t that
goes looking for f**kin' bother, like, but at the end of the day
I'm the c**t with a pool cue and he can get the fat end in his puss
any time he f**king wanted like. So I squares up, casual like. What
does the hard c**t do? Or the so-called hard c**t? sh*tes it. Puts
down his drink, turns, and gets the f**k out of there. And after
that, well, the game was mine.
Tommy:
It was Wednesday morning. We were in the Volley, playing pool. That
much is true. But, Begbie is playing absolutely f**king 'gash!'.
He's got a hangover so bad, he can barely hold the cue, never mind
pot a ball. And I'm doing my best to lose, you know trying to
humour him like. But it's not doing any good. Every time I hit the
ball, I seem to pot something. Every time Begbie goes near the
table, he f**ks it up. So he's got the hump, right? But, finally I
manage to set it up so that all he's gotta do is to pot the black,
to savage a little bit of pride, and maybe not kick my head in,
yeah? So he squares up... pressure shot...And it all goes wrong,
big time!. He picks on this stinky wee gage at the bar, accusing
him of putting him off by looking at him. I mean the man hasn't
glanced in that direction.
When Hibs, went up, to win the Scottish Cup - I wisnae there - furfuxake!
