yeah,Estes burgamy, my grandfather booked Spanish language films a couple days a week. some of his most valued patrons were seasonal laborers who often came up from the valley. ropes and lariat are and we’re the same. in addition, when , as my grandfather would say, “the tv killed the picture show”, the theater became a pool hall. one snooker table and two pool tables, and later, a jukebox, , then pinball, and finally video arcade games.tjere were legendary snooker tournaments with local rivalries. cigarettes, coke, Dr oepper, and sprite,, from the old school sugar syrup, chili buns, chili dogs, and candy. always had hot coffee on during the day. a woman named Minnie ran the day shift and my grandfather came in about 6,, and closing time was when there was no one left ,sometimes 11, sometimes 2 to 3 in the morning. we were members of the wolfforth Methodist church, when it was still on the south side of town., so the pool hall was not my grandmother’s favorite. I can remember her at the theater, but not the pool hall! Estes died in 2004 at the age of 90. his wife Nona died in 2001, at the age of 100. I’m the only one of our family still here in Lubbock. so, there’s a little of what became of it, we closed in the mid to late 80’s.
another run by Estes burgamy, the coyote was severely damaged by a tornado., but I don’t know what year
also run by Estes burgamy, and much later than 1957
my grandmother died in 2021, not 2001!!
