Pool Tables In Calgary Provide Hours Of Fun

I have great memories of pool tables in Calgary

. I spent countless summer evenings with friends playing pool and many creative variations on it, and no matter how often we played, we still wanted to play one more time.

During my younger years, I would come home from college each summer and work so that I could pay for tuition and apartment rent the next year. One particular summer I had a job working at Toys R Us, and I would often be stuck there closing the store late into the night.

Luckily for me, closing time at Toys R Us was generally the beginning time for many fun filled hours of pool. I would stop at a local fast food restaurant to pick up a burger and a milkshake on the way to my friend's house, and then the fun would begin.

I have to admit that I've never been good at pool, but when you're playing with friends that doesn't really matter. You're just having fun laughing and talking and enjoying each other's company. When we got tired of one version of pool we'd just move on to another.

For example, if you've never tried playing pool using your feet instead of your hands to hold the cue, you don't know what you're missing. I always felt like I was at a slight disadvantage since I have short stubby toes, but even if I never won, I always had a good time.

I remember that another game we loved to play was Around the World. We didn't even use cues for this game. I guess if I had to compare it to anything, I might say that it was a variation on air hockey, but what really made it fun was the rule was that no one was allowed to hit the ball more than once at a time so we were constantly rotating in new players.

It was a fast paced game that really kept your heart pumping. You just had to be careful not to smash your fingers with all of those pool balls rolling around. We never had very many casualties though. If anything the worst side effect was having a sore gut from laughing so hard.

It's been ten years since that summer and I still reminisce about all the fun times my friends and I had with pool tables in Calgary. It was the perfect way to end many long days working at Toys R Us.
