Martin Luther King Jr. – Pool video (2 min. 54 sec.) entitled "MLK: Pool Shark for the People"

Miracle at 1982 McDermott Masters Trick Shot Championship

Description: This video presents a dynamic and exciting competition featuring the top trick shot artists of this era. At 18:45 of the timeline something very unusual happens on a popular trick shot. Tom Rossman, known as "Hoppe Toad" at the time (now Dr. Cue) appears to lose his rhythm and lags in the total score against his two opponents. What happens next is very strange, to say the least, as Tom miraculously starts his assent to victory.


This event catapults "Hoppe Toad" / "Dr. Cue" into the media spectrum, in a way that God uses to develop a "table trotter" entertainment, teaching, and competitive career for over 35 years -- all leading up to ministry witness under the GTS RACK Rooms project online, reaching people worldwide to:

"Play Skillfully with A Shout of Joy" (Psalms 33:3)

2017 BCA Hall Of Fame ("Dr. Cue" Induction)

(Edited Version -- 41+ minutes)

Most players consider the "pinnacle of their game journey" to be inducted into the BCA Hall Of Fame. Even though "Dr. Cue" did not seek this lofty goal, God had other plans. God knew people would listen to Biblical truths and the Gospel message if a player speaking about them had industry validated credentials both on and off the table. Dr. Cue realized that the highest "pinnacle in life" was to be assured eternity in heaven by accepting Jesus Christ as one's personal Lord and Savior. This spiritual Hall of Faith "gift", so to speak, is all that really matters and everyone can have it free of charge. All honor, glory, and praise to God for the "amazing grace" His Son Jesus gave us ALL on the Cross. May the message of this video given by "Dr. Cue's" induction speech inspire and provide hope for each person in the billiard industry and beyond.

Enjoy and Blessings to ALL!

Tom "Dr. Cue" Rossman
