Pool Cue News and Review

So I saw this on Philly.com today and I had to post. Apparently, there’s no better way for a family to have a good time than to hit the Super Billiards Expo (Jesus, am I posting on this topic again???). Better yet, right after the SBE, they list the Valley Forge Gun Show. Muzzle loaders to machine guns… they have it all!

Good old King of Prussia… You can go get strapped, then hit the local Wal-Mart for a carton of Camel unfiltered smokes and head over to Valley Forge for a weekend of hustling. You won’t even need to head to South Philly to score the crank you’ll need to stay up for 3 days because you know there will be plenty of hook ups at the show.

Dammit! Well, I might have to go to the stupid Super Billiards Expo after all. It seems that Predator has signed up ultra-hottie Shanelle Loraine to be their player rep for their line of Poison Cues and she’ll be at the expo. Apparently those guys at Predator are pretty smart after all. I’m guessing that Charlie Williams had something to do with the sponsorship since Shanelle hasn’t really done all that much in the way of winning championships, but who cares!Personally, I think the Poison cues are pretty stupid. Why would I pay Predator prices for a cue that doesn’t have a 314 shaft on it? The “Double D” technology doesn’t sound like much and their Sarin tip is nothing new either, as it was done first by 5280 with their Red Line Tip.

When you hit the expo to ogle Shanelle, make sure you take a whiff of one of those Poison cues with the funky wrap. They smell like an impossible combination of rubber and ass. Oh, and leave a comment if you try one out. I haven’t had a chance to play with one yet, but I doubt its anything special. After all, if they were Predator quality, why wouldn’t the company slap a Slazenger …err… Predator logo on it?
