Big Shot Billiards

I have worked with the CT APA pool league for a while, and then we moved very close to Big Shots.  I love the place.  The tables are nice, they have beer and okay food.  The owners are great people and if I'm correct on who they are, they're there all the time.  I wound up joining a pool league there just a month ago, but I've been going there for pool events for a while.

Close to every table is a tv to watch sports.  The waitresses are generally friendly and prompt with the beers.  What more can you ask for?

I love shooting pool.

My Dad was a muscle-car tuning, Genesee Cream Ale drinking, long haired badass in the 70s.  While the long hair may have went away as he got older, he still has a penchant for pre-Sharp-Dresssed-Man ZZ Top, billiards and cold beer.

If my Dad owned a billiards hall, it'd be this kind of place.

Big Shots is not the hip-hop blaring, tough-guy pool hall that most CT billiards establishments have become.  The music is usually at a reasonable volume (and is usually of the "same 50 songs AOR/classic rock" format), there's a great beer selection, decent bar food and immaculately maintained tables.  It's a 21+ crowd only, people playing like jerks isn't tolerated and the prices are totally reasonable ($6 per person all night).

League/APA nights happen monthly so call ahead or visit their website to make sure you're not going to be out of a table.
