I grew up in a very small town...the local establishment had only a snooker table. Later when venturing to a town over six times bigger (and still only 3k population) five miles away, the local pool hall was set up as described above (two great snooker tables in the front and four also ran eight ball tables in the rear). Our really good players spent their time on the snooker table.

I haven't been to any true pool halls in over 20 years, but have yet to see a snooker table in a one or two table bar/tavern in many years...I have great memories though!!!
