I’m still here, just enjoying some much needed time off work. Spent today playing 9 ball pool which is always a good thing #9ballpool

In from too many long disco songs at the pub and one slightly TMI confession from the barmaid who'd clearly had a few, but a lovely evening. US Open 9-Ball pool final on and it's America versus America. We'd like America to win this one, but more specifically Shane Van Boening as he always comes across as a decent bloke. Not looking good for him, though.

Quick search to see if anyone's watching the #MosconiCup and, nope. Just me a year ago, and likely just me this year too. A lone, annual 9-ball pool competition fan on this big, wide Fediverse.

We quite often support teams or players in sports based on whether we've been to their countries and how much we liked visiting there. Watching the US Open 9-Ball Pool championship right now. Fedor Gorst (Russia (but no Russian flag shown against his name (for reasons))) against Ko Ping Chung (Taiwan). Tricky. We've been to both and loved both. How do we pick? Mountain tea house versus front row seats at the the ballet? Huge spiders versus terrible vodka?

Currently watching the second semi-final in the #WorldCupOfPool between #Germany and #China, and the weirdly entertaining part of this tournament has been the choice of walk-on music for the German team: Pink Fluffy Unicorns Dancing On Rainbows by Andrew Huang.

Worth checking the original video out (linked in the YouTube description) as well as that animated version.

Now, obviously this is Mastodon and Mastodon is not where you'd go if you wanted to talk about #sports normally, but since we're currently watching #9BallPool and will soon be watching #RugbyLeague on Sky Sports, I thought I'd mention that my wife and I - and we're somewhat camera-shy - were once live on Sky Sports while attending the 2002 Mosconi Cup in London and for a while there was video evidence of it on YouTube. So there. #MosconiCup
Squeaky bum win for Great Britain over Vietnam in the World Cup of Pool. 7-6 against an unseeded side and GB were 6-4 down in the race to 7. #9Ball #9BallPool #NineBall #Pool #WorldCupOfPool #Sport

Enjoying the World Cup of Pool currently taking place in Spain. Spanish crowd enjoying themselves with a Macarena in the break but the highlight of the Spain B team's game against Saudi Arabia right now is that one of the Saudi players appears to have taken half a ton of amphetamines before the match. He's a smidge hyper.
