Playing Pool in DC

Sat May 11 at 7:30 PM, Buffalo Billiards
1330 19th St NW, Washington, DC, USA (Map & Directions)
Want to hang out and play some pool?
Buffalo Billiards in DC is the most generally accessible pool hall that I know (right by Dupont Circle Metro) -- but suggestions are welcome!

Also, how about a Saturday evening in May? The only one that I can't do is the 18th. Otherwise, which would work best: 5/4, 5/11, 5/25?

Update: it looks like there's interest (yay! getting out my chalk as we speak...) so I'm confirming the event for 5/11 at Buffalo Billiards so people can plan.

If you want to come but that time/place absolutely doesn't work for you, let me know because maybe we can work around that.

It's been far too long since I played pool, so I'm probably no good at it now. And I haven't been able to make it to any IRL event since moving to NoVA. So I'm interested.

I'm not sure of my availability for this one either, but I'm keeping an eye out.

Oh, I'm actually no good at pool -- I just enjoy it! No need to worry about skill level.

Just don't do the thing of pretending to be awful and then hustling everyone. Although even that is probably forgivable if you can do some cool trick shots.

Sounds fun! I'm in.

Sadly, I am completely hopeless at pool, and also hoping to catch the U St Funk Parade on that day. But this sounds like fun and I hope you all have a great time!

Can't make it after all but have fun!

Aw, sorry to hear it, tooloudinhere!

I'm on my way over. Didn't make a reservation or anything.

See you soon!

I'm here! Sitting at the bar over by the dartboards.

If you're a "maybe" who decides to head over (do it! do it! :D) and hasn't met me before, I'm white with dark hair, and wearing jeans, yellow sneakers, a green t-shirt, maybe a trench coat because it is cold as hell, and carrying a black purse.
