Ah man, love me some pool!
I shall watch the full match Saturday daytime while the wife's out.
The few minutes I've just watched put me in mind of a cross between Earl the Pearl and W.C.Fields.

Just skimming through it and listening to the banter is great. Howard Cosell is a legend 👍

Reminded me of the movie The Hustler with Paul Newman.

I met Fats with my uncle when I was about 11. He took me to a pool hall and introduced me and played a game with him. If course Fats won, but my uncle was surprisingly good. I was just a wide eyed kid.
God and Texas!
