Looking to play some foosball.

I know Clicks has a table.

Any others?

Most bars used to have them back in the early 90s. Now not so much.

The Cove


Went tonight and they got rid of their table a few years ago according to the doorman.

Rickochet Sherwood-table was covered up tonight (in use as a table)
Londoner-Nice newer T3000 in need of some silicone on the rods
Clicks-Old Brown Marble 90's vintage with bent rods and loose men/handles, needs rebuilding.
Cove-No table
Rickochet Prairieville-No table anymore

Table Soccer Game.

The table of choice in most of the US is the Tornado.

I used to have a tornado table when I was young but by the time I was able to go in bars, it had died down a good bit. Now I never see people playing anymore which is why I picked up pool.

It's changed a lot. There used to be one or two tables in every bar 88-92 when I used to play a lot.

Then again, most of those places are closed down now (Caterie, Library, Bengal, Tiger, etc.).

Others places like Austin, Ft. Worth, and Houston have a pretty active scene.

New Orleans used to have a bunch of players but it's pretty dead now too.

No just the Cove and the Londoner.

That tap room the Cove opened next door is pretty cool. Lots of draft beer choices. I'm still partial to the Pelican House though.

We did get rid of it about two years ago-ish. There may be plans in the future to add one back to the front game room, we need to take measurements as it is in the process of being remodeled/renovated since the big move over to CBD. Thanks bros.

That would be cool.

It's kind of a chicken and egg thing now. Nobody plays because there's no tables. There's no tables because nobody plays.

Clicks has a table but it is beat to death and needs about $500 worth of upgrades to be playable. Not sure who Town and Country amusements is but I guess it's their table and they are probably wondering why it doesn't get much play. I actually thought that business was abandoned based on the way their location looks on Florida.

Most people who like foosball want to play on a nice table just like a pool player doesn't want to play on a table with a big rip down the middle.
