at 2:13, the guy shooting is certainly Danny Dilaberto, not Jim Rempe.

Great photos. I can't believe how young Earl was in these photos.

Howard Viceroy and Kenny McCoy (the greatest working pool player) was also pictured

I pratice in the pool hall Kenny hangs out in all the time. Been in a few tournaments with Howard. You know who Paul Harley is? He's the guy with his hand on his chin at 2:51. He's a local player also.

HOWARD VICORY AND KENNY McCOY ( THE GREATEST WORKING POOL PLAYER THAT HAS EVER LIVED) WAS ALSO PICTURED BOTH FROM COLUMBUS OHIO

At 2:13, that looks like Jim Rempe shooting, though I'm not sure who his seated opponent is. There's no caption for either of them.

There is an unnamed player inbetween Reid & Cookie. I believe this player to be Dave Yaeger from Clinton,Iowa. He appears at the 2:09 mark in the video.

Hi, what pool hall was that?

[BillPorter1456]

Forest Park Billiards in Dayton, OH. Owned by Joe Burns at that time.

[iRider1]

Thanks. I grew a few miles from there. I don't remember the pool hall. I was 14 in '82. I played sometimes at the Main St. Arcade at Hudson. Thanks again.

Hey I just noticed something after watching this video again. Are those hairpins that Earl's using to hold his hair back while he's playing?! Lol, guess he even had his little contraptions back then too!

[Arty0569]

the 80's was the greatest pool decade ever!!

[BKeers1234]
