A unique incident
Fleetwood Chronicle, Friday 18 December 1931
A unique incident, probably unequalled in Fylde billiards’ annals, occurred during a game of snooker at the Fleetwood Church Institute on Friday evening. One of the players, Mr. Harold Parkinson, “patted” the pink ball on one table, and the white ball jumped off the table on to the adjoining table, where another game of snooker was also in progress, and, to the amazement of every onlooker, “potted” the pink ball on the second table!
