“Concentrate Tino!”
“Just hit it gently this time. No! No! No! We’re smalls!”
A gaggle of juvenile delinquent wrecks somehow managed to pool together $3 between them over the weekend to slot into the pool table down the Betoota Dolphins Leagues Club.
Tino Larson, Brett Syphon, Oliver Goink and Louise Ansett were pissed as hell by all accounts.
Too blind for BuckHunter, Brett tried to have a go but shot only does and people around the bar.
It was at that point that the belligerent quartet first caught the attention of the Club’s bouncer.
Some witnesses suggest that the bouncer had his eye on the group after Louise accused a gaming attendant of being a ‘soft cock’ for not having enough $20s in the till to pay her winnings out in lobsters.
Whichever one it was, when the group started to play pool, it became apparent to everyone in the bar that they probably needed to go.
Speaking exclusively to The Advocate this morning, bouncer Harry Pyemann said the game of pool went on for 40 minutes.
“They were quite intoxicated,” he said.
“If we had some cops doing a walkthrough, we’d probably get fined. Then the manager would put me to the sword,”
“But, to be fair, they weren’t really hurting any one. So I let them be.”
None of the four pool players responded to our request for comment as of 10am.
More to come.
