3 Ball Run 07

6th Annual 3 Ball Run
February 10, 2007

A Report from the 'Webwench'

What a nice day as we are off and running to one of our favorite runs, the MMA Leather Districts 6th Annual 3 Ball Run. Apparently, we weren’t the only ones thinking it was a great day to get out, 100 other riders felt the same. This was the largest turnout ever for the 3 Ball Run.

Now racking 3 pool balls at every stop for 100 people x 5 stops is 1500 racks of balls or 4500 pool balls. WOW! Now that’s just an insane amount of balls. The Leather District, although a little surprised by the large turnout, seemed to take it in stride and recruited whatever help they needed along the way to keep things running as smoothly as possible.

It took 2 hours to clear out the first stop but things started to move faster as the ride progressed. Some stops had more than one pool table, which allowed for quicker processing at each stop. We can tell you there couldn’t have been one unhappy bar owner at any of the stops. This run literally packed every one of them.

The thing we were most impressed by was the patience of all riders at the event. Not once did we hear ‘How long is this gonna take’ or ‘how long before you announce the winner’ there was nothing except people having fun and enjoying the day.

The last stop was at the Stardust Lounge. They were great hosts and even brought in a band for the afternoon to entertain everyone called Exit 195. The band was good but they were so loud ya just couldn’t think let alone talk. Brats and Sauerkraut were also supplied FREE of charge by the Stardust. FYI… The Stardust has a new owner and is now a biker friendly bar with colors welcome, a big change from the previous owners.

Great job to the Leather District and all of their volunteers. This is a great, fun run for everyone whether you can play pool or not. For $5 bucks you can’t go wrong!
