In Brooklyn their we're a lot of pool rooms. They all had pictures of Jackie gleeson as Minnesota fats from the hustler on their walls. Man I liked that movie.
A lot of those pool rooms were owned by a guy named Jackie Cannon. That guy was a real pool hustler.
Later he sold most of his pool room but kept one on flatbush ave near ave K. I met him in that place. I was a fair pool player. But this guy was great and he was also a great guy.
Later he sold that pace and tried to open up an entertainment center in NJ lost track of him after that.
