I think this video is from the Valley Hall of Fame Dinner show. August 10th, 1991. It was produced by the Birkbeck "twins" who were Billiards International at the time. The place was the Williamson Restaurant in Horsham, PA. There was an exhibition by Mike Massey prior to the match. They didn't know if Mosconi was going to be able to compete because he had been severely ill and in the hospital. There is a tape of the whole match available through Accu-Stats.

    Jimmy Caras gave an exhibition for Brunswick in Louisville back in the mid 1960's. He was fantastic. At one point, he rolled a ball next to the right rail and then cut it into left pocket. Just imagine watching and thinking the shot is headed for the right pocket and all of a sudden Caras makes razor thin cut on a moving ball and sends it to the left pocket. He smiled a little when he did this. I think he knew that everyone knew that they had just seen the impossible.
