Tailgators to Host Pro and Amateur events August 22-23

By: Markus Noé

It is hard to believe that we are already at the half way point of the summer holidays for many. A sad fact for most, however for pool junkies it is a sign that it is almost time for the beginning of another tournament season. This first announcement comes from Curtis Houlden of Tailgators pool hall located in the Merivale Mall in Ottawa, Ontario.

When it comes to bar-box leagues or events, Tailgators really is the mecca for Ontario. This event promises to kick the season off with a bang, with its 8 player 300$ entry and $1600 added Pro tournament. Our very own Erik "Big Red" Hjorleifson has already confirmed and depending on his busy traveling schedule John Morra will most likely be there as well. This tournament will be a great one to watch as it should attract all the best bar-box specialists around.

There will also be a 64 player max Amateur handicapped event, this will be done on a first come first serve basis. To make sure you don't get left out book your spot now. For more information on the tournaments please contact Curtis Houlden at 1-613-852-6550, I will be playing and covering this event so see you all there!
