Kalispell, MT had one a couple of years ago at a Home Rec place. The place sold Billiards, foosball, fireplace, hot tubs, and landscape stuff to. Anyway, I wish I knew the name of the business. It was a home model on the display floor.
Those tables play simluar to the tornado but the men's feet are wider.

on my tornado table just to get a feel of it for awile i also have a legand
table to its feet are an inch wide to . its not as fast as the tornado but its
a good table gripper, easyer to bank smaller goalie opening a lot of fun

What up MT. Foosers. Sounds like you guys have a pretty good times playing foos. My name is TJ and I from Dickinson ND. We also have had somewhat of a " Foos Scene " going here in Dickinson for the last 3 years. We have tournaments every Monday night @ Bernies Esquire Club, starting @ 8. In the past years we have had a X-mas tourney, called the X-mas shootout. last year we had 5 tables and 4 events, DYP, OS, OD, GW. I currently do not know if we will be haveing the tourney this year, because I am not organizing the league anymore, but I will let you know, If you are a Semi-pro you should be able to clean up on it pretty easily. It would be nice to get some other real players here. I am Amatuer and I am by far the best player around and probably in the state. So i think you guys should try to come down if we have the tourney.
-
TJ - If anyone from your area gets to Rapid City, call me and we'll meet you somewhere to play. We've got action.
Oly
605-391-5958

I might have to take to up on the offer.
Total Est. Time: 4 hours, 22 minutes Total Est. Distance: 317.60 miles
That is how far we are from each other.
Here in Billings we have a very talented pool of players. Most are not ranked but don't let that fool ya.
-
TJ are you in Dickinson ND or Rapid City?
-
Jeremy -I'm inviting the Dickinson area players to call me if they ever are in Rapid City.
Of course, all traveling players are asked to call me and we've got action.
Oly
-
tj if ya have your x mas shootout please let us no i would bring 2 teams 1 for sure if its a weekend thanks marty
-
TJ,
I would go and maybe could round up some more players if the payouts are large enough. Do you folks have a sponser for the Tourney? You know you could change the name of the tourney and make North Dakota State Championships. OD, OS, DYP (maybe a 2nd dyp), GW, WS would be all you need. See if you folks can get a beer sponser from one of the distributurs from the bar. A ND State Tourney would draw allot of players from Montana.
-
Marty,
You need to come for a visit again. Where are you at again? How is that front pin coming?
Jeremy
-
yes jeremy i no i got a couple of buddys that seam intrested one of these
days we'll make your dyp , our even meet on a saturday just right now with
work its busy , were not the best players old school but we still injoy to play
i' live in chinook a little town over by havre , my front pin its comeing along

What up Jeremy and Marty. I have alot to reply to here. I am From Dickinson ND. I come through Billings and Rapid City at least a few times a year. I will let you guys know anytime I am coming through. You guys do the same, i have two coin ops in my basement and I love to play so just let me know. 701-260-1816. As far as a ND State championships, we have kicked it around, as far as a sponsor I could make that happen no problem. The dillema is: when I started the X-mas shootout in 2004, it was @ the Esquire club. We have had it there ever since, the bar owner usually kicked in between 300-500 into the pot. So he is very good to the foosers. The biggest deal is the bar is just packed for this tourney and 95% of the players do no know what a distraction is, and all of the observers do not respect the match or games that are going on, so it kind of sucks, and now with the new ITSF rules, we cannot play by them, no one has even read the old rulebook, now they have to place the ball? It won t work. Trust me. I beleive if we were going to have a STATE CHAMPIONSHIP we would have to move the location of tourney and that would be a pain. maybe in 08 or 09. Ok next, about the best players in the state: Pipken is nails, I played him in 2003 @ the Canadien Open in Saskatoon SA. I beat him then, but now he is NASTY! and his dad is a killer goalie.
TJ TOOZ
-
Grandmaster? Have you played in Dickinson before? There was a guy and his wife at the bar a while ago from Rapid that I heard about, I was not there but they told me about ya.
Marty? Do you have a Bonzini table? If you are not using it, I am interested if it is good shape.
-
TJ,
Pipkin Jr in 2003 wasn't half the player he is today. Trust me. Nevertheless, he is the top player in Montana. His dad is tons better to. Please do call me when your in the area 406-245-5061 Hm# Do you have firm dates on the x-mas shootout? Oh, Marty do you have a Bonzini table? I used to play on the old Rene Pierre French style table. Thus, is the reason I shoot front pins like I do. I would be interested in that table as well. Oh, TJ, I see what your are saying with the rules and all of that. Sounds like a interesting crowd. Yes, I played Pipkin Jr. in a Bozeman tourney in 06 and we went meat ball every game with him scoring the final point for the win. Tough match for sure but he took first and I was the first loser. It will be fun to play ya a game. Also, I bet Oly is a pretty good player and look forward to seeing him across the table to.
-
sorry guys i do'nt own a bonzini , yet i do own three tables a tournment soccer, tornado coin op gray marble , and a legand table
hope to own a bonzini some day, tj i would not have any problems
with bar room rules as i am just learning the new rules, sounds like
you both are real good players with experance. jeremy i,m going to try and make your dyp not this comeing tuesday but with any luck the next.
-
Marty,
I will be there and so will several other player you did not get to meet the last time you were down.

I went to the the Monday tournament and it was a joke, since I stopped going ( March ) no balls have been replaced or rods lubed, disgusting, I used to maintain them frequently until the distributor stopped supplying me, so the Dickinson foosball scene is dieing rapidly, I rarely go and the 2nd best player in town put a "lifetime ban on the bar". And in the previous years there were cash prizes at the end of the year, because I was running it, now, they are going to give out t-shirts. LOL. Last year we had a $900 cash payout for our final league tourney, this year a 7$ t-shirt.
-
Hey High Plains Foosers. We got action in Rapid City SD. Call me if you are in town.
Oly
605-391-5958
-
Oly, you should start posting your Rapid City results. Plus, the family wants to vacation down your way. Sometime in 08, most likely the summer. I will call you for sure if in the area.
-
Jeremy,
Now that things are slacking off a bit at Jack's Campers a bit I will be posting more often. The results from the 3 Dog Saloon I will try to get. It is a really small town and a tiny tournament but boy do those guys love to play. They kicked me out first thing so they can practice and get up a level or two. I still stop in to hit a few balls and stir things up some. In town (Rapid) Doug Wardrop and occasionally Hollywood and I play at Dublin Square downtown 8th and Main. We are hardcore foosers for life and can't possibly stop if we wanted to which of course we don't. There are a few others that would come out for "new blood" or "fresh meat" if they know when and where. Always remember it's a STEAL WORLD and LIVIN' WITH THE BALL is the way to be.
I"ll see you - across the table - one of these days!

Thanks Jeremy it was a blast you have'nt seen the last of me hope to make it over at least once a month learned a lot and thanks to
johnny cassity for caring me and teaching me the rules as we went
again thanks
Marty
-
Marty,
I am glad you had fun. Tough matches, huh? Are Ron and Rusty (R&R) going to come back with you? Did they have a good time to? What did y'all think about the level of play at Bullwackers?
Jeremy
-
very tough matches i have,nt played in a foosball tounament sence 1979 as far as ron and rusty they had a blast they both had no tornado
experance and i think on the way home i might have talked ron into buying a tornado coin opp but have not talked to them sence they droped me off should run into ron tonight as far as the level of play
out standing thats all we talked about on the way home, i got a couple
of other buddys i would like to bring over to for the experance there both good players but never seen a snake , one i think played at your
state tourny in 2003 i think thats what he said
-
Yes, I believe your buddy was there in 2003. He had a girl he brought with him to the tourney. He should have seen a snake shot way back then.
You played pretty good for not being in the scene for awhile.
Sometimes, I shoot my front pin and it gets mistaken for a roller/snake but I do shoot both.
Next time y'all come down we will make sure the tourney starts on time. I don't run the dyp's anymore and very happy to have Andy Elsberry and Johnny Cassity do it. However, I will get a tourney chart/brackets for them. Writings on napkins stuff is sloppy.

Hey Marty and Jeremy a few things to talk about with you guys.
#1. There will be a 4th annual X-mas shootout in dickinson ND. There will be at least three events. Dates are unknown, but looking at the calendar it will probably be the friday and sat before x-mas. They have not asked me to run it and I won t. But I will set up the tables and get them into good shape. How many table is also a ? last year we had 5. But i think we should have at least 4. I will keep you guys posted.
#2. If anyone is interested in a coin-op, i am currnetly looking to sell one of mine, it is brand new and came from the 2007 US OPEN in Atlanta. Let me know, the reason I am selling it, Is i am looking to get one of the new ones. So I still want a nice chunk of change for it.
TJ TOOZ
-
yes keep me posted , how much for the table ? jerermy i plan on makeing your dyp next tuesday hopefuly i can talk some one into rideing over with me
-
TJ are the three events os, od, and dyp? I wish I had the extra money to buy your table. You know that edition is most likely a better quality table than the new ice box/silver tables. Did you play in the 2007 Open? If so how did you do? I have played in Vegas twice but haven't been able to return.
I will speak with the wife and see if she will let me out for the tourney. Hopefully, I can find some others foosers to bring with me.
Marty,
This tuesday for next tuesday? Ok, cool either way. You should buy that table but if he decides to hold on to it then you may want to consider Jeff Pipken in Bozeman. He has a few of the same 30th edition tables. He was asking $1100 each.
-
MT Foosers, I still do not know when the x-mas shootout is going to be in Dickinson, I will know by next week and get the flyer out to you guys as soon as it is done. Marty I would want 1100 for my table as well. How does that legend play? I would love to play on that table. I was down in Reno, NV for the Corona Light Elimination tourney and won a $1000 bucks for the title, it was crazy intense because of the 5 minute format of the matches. Do you guys think you would come down to Dickinson for the Tournament>
-
I will try, I just need to know dates. Good job on the Cornona tourney. You sure need to come to Billings for a visit. Tuesday nights at 9pm, Bullwackers, $5 entry, $.75 games, 3 out 5 format, new rules, great competition.
-
Yeah, I will definitely come out there just to play and probably go skiing, I know that I will be out there sometime soon, which days do you play at bullwackers. Anytime anyone is coming through ND let me know, especially the next 2 months we will be playing alot of foos.
J- you had asked me about the corona light tourney and if anything was coming to MT. I doubt it. I found out about the tourney at worlds, and then I drove to Reno after worlds to see some of my buddys that live there and happened to win a qualifying tourney for the final. So we were qualified but I obviously was not going to go back down for the final right.? Wrong, I had enough frequent flyer miles and thought we were probably the favorites so I did it, and then we won.

MT FOOSERS:
The 4th annual X-mas shootout will be held on Friday night the 21st of December (DYP). With events to follow on Saturday. We have had some really good turnouts in the past. I am anticipating a smaller turnout, due to how many people were home for Turkey Day and also I do not know how much time I will have to put into it. I have no support from the distributor who owns the tables, so it is just a pain in my ass, and the bar does not help either, besides kicking a nice sum of money into the pot. Oh yeah in years past the draw has been roto so it is difficult to win with a bad draw, but the payout should be at least $250 to the winning team.
@
Bernies Esquire Club
Dickinson ND 58601
I will hopefully get a flyer out and I will answer any questions on this forum.
TJ TOOZ
-
Hey Marty, You going to this tourney? You should. I will see what I can do. I would love to but must ask the wife.
TJ, yes a flyer would be nice. Do you have software to make one? I can send you and example flyer if you want. Maybe you could copy and paste or cut out to form fit your tourney. I believe I have one saved in microsoft publisher. I will send it your way, anyway. The sooner i get that flyer the sooner I can alert the Billings players.
-
will try busy month , also jeremy me and a buddy might make your dyp
tonight he,s going to let me no, later today
-
Marty,
I will be at the DYP for sure tonight. I have been sick for the past 3 days so we will see how I do tonight.
