We were all parked at the table furthest from the front door, which was good, because the police drive by to check and none of us wanted to be seen. The only light that was on was the one over the pool table that Rick was playing on. And Terry escorted each of us to the door and out, since the bar had to be locked up. That was one crazy night and I think we got home, after taking Rick home, at 3 a.m. Terry does provide champagne for the midnight toast and lots of party favors so it's one huge party. I know this kind of thing wouldn't appeal to a lot of people but when you consider that we play pool out of Terry's and we'll be involved in the individual tournaments on January 5th (which means I'll miss my hook-in for January), well, it just fits us to a T. -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Sandy 's message, "Oh, yeah! We're going out. I think that when the kids moved out and on their own, Gerry and I reverted back a bit to a younger age and started doing some of the things we didn't do because we both had kids at a young age. Oh, we're not doing anything spectacular, like going to one of the hotels and paying $200 for a night of partying with a bunch of people we don't know and then spending the night in a hotel room. Nope, not us! We're headed for Terry's, our home away from home, to get involved in the tournaments. Last New Year's Eve, we were there and ended up closing the place down, and then some, at 2:20 in the morning. By law, Terry's MUST close at 2 but our one teammate was still playing in the scotch doubles. And we were his ride home, since we rarely drink. As Rick and his partner finished his last match, we watched Terry and his staff clean tables, turn off the lights and lock up." on 10:53:14 am, Sun, 12/30/07

The thing that I like is that Terry's, for the most part, is comprised of a older crowd. There's no drug activity and very little of the younger set who wants to get loud and obnoxious. Terry does rule with an iron hand and the bartenders (all women) don't take any crap from anyone and the guys treat the staff with respect. So, all in all, it's a good place to go and play pool, unlike some of the places we've been in. (NT) -- Sandy, 11:01:34 am, Sun, 12/30/07
