May Kaarlus Was A Trick Shot Billiard Prodigy Who Walked Away From It All

from Cool Weird Awesome with Brady Carlson · host Brady Carlson

Today in 1901, a newspaper article proclaimed 16 year old May Kaarlus as perhaps the greatest trick shot billiard player in the whole world. And she really could play that well, though the career of this pool table prodigy went on to take a surprise turn. Plus: around this time in 2020, a baker sent a friend some hot chocolate bombs as gifts, though the friend didn't quite understand how to use them. ⁠Year 1901 - Lil' Miss May Kaarlus⁠ (Chicago Billiard Museum via Facebook) ⁠Baker left cracking up after pal mistakes chocolate gift he made for bath bomb⁠ (The Mirror) ⁠Help this show run the table as a backer on Patreon⁠
