FORMER world number one 8-ball legend, Jack 'The Kalgoorlie Kid' Halligan amazed locals with a variety of skill and trickshots at the Woolshed Inn last Thursday night.
Taking a very laid back style, Jack was happy to chalk up a game against any challenger, which didn't take too long for a lot of people.
Jack then showed off an array of trick shots that included using people from the crowd, card tricks, jump shots and spin shots to go with some great jokes and yarns.
There isn't much Jack Halligan hasn't achieved in 8-ball, with some of his feats being Australian Open and doubles championships, 13 State Titles, winning the world player of the year award with a winning average of 88.89 percent, which is a record that seems highly unlikely to be broken.
Receiving the 'Australia 2000' Sports Medal presented by the Prime Minister on behalf of the Queen for outstanding sporting achievement was also a highlight of his illustrious carreer, and the list goes on.
The exciting cue-man was more than happy to give anyone hints or tips to improve their game throughout the night.
