APA traveled to Dayton, Ohio to visit with League Operator's Eugene and Stephenie Hurst who were hosting a Dr. Cue exhibition at King's Table Billiards. We knew there would be a good crowd in attendance for the show, but we didn't expect the first comment of the night to be so impressive.  “APA, you guys do it large.”  The room filled quickly with APA and non-APA members eager to see Tom “Dr. Cue” Rossman do his magic.<?xml:namespace prefix = o /?>

As always, Dr. Cue’s performance was amazing and the fans had a great time. Tom got the crowd involved by asking a volunteer - 9 year old Austin Carr - to help execute a trick shot.  Austin was put to the test, but came through with flying colors.  Austin and his 10 year old brother, Hunter, were involved in the show again later in the evening when Tom set up for his version of the Boot Shot. Instead of using a boot from the crowd he used Austin & Hunter's tennis shoes.

The owner of King’s Table, Dean Liakaos, was a gracious host to APA and everyone there.  Dean was involved in the first challenge match of the evening, which turned into a banking contest that ended up with the two competitors agreeing to a draw.  Dr. Cue played a few more fans that night and then we moved on to the autograph and photo session. The line was long, but Tom made sure that anyone who wanted a photo and autograph got one.
