create, the problem was, they
had no character, atmosphere or human feeling. Then it finally
happened, I found AC Butch, this real live person fascinated me
right from the git go, so much so that I started to do some
research on him. Butch is a very large heavy set person, about
400lbs worth of large from Atlantic City N.J..
He's been a professional gambler for the past 45 years since the
age of 13, a book is currently being written about his life's story,
and New Line Cinema is doing a motion picture on
him. Butch is a throw back to the color-full Damon Runyon characters
of old.
Butch started his professional gambling career in 1957 at the age
of 13 as an action bowler. Bowling was Butch's first love, he was a
great athlete and could of become a professional baseball player but
couldn't resist the one on one competition of bowling, betting on
himself only made it sweeter, so much so that he eventually gave up
baseball all together in favor of the old fashioned smoke filled
bowling alleys and the lure of wagering on himself in some classic
action matches. He dislikes the modern day sterile bowling
establishments. Butch's favorite gambling motion picture of all times
is the Hustler, starring the late great Jackie Gleason. The big pool
matches were shot at Ames in Times Square, Butch has shot pool there
many times himself for money, he loved and ate up the atmosphere of
the joint. Butch is originally from Brooklyn N.Y.
Butch being who he is, wasn't content with just the memory of his
early glory years, so he built a website in tribute to his first love,
ActionBowlers.com, which has
become the number one website in the world paying homage to what he
calls the true legends of the game, the action bowlers.
If all this wasn't enough, Butch also teaches gambler's
how to be a winner
ant not just
depend on lady luck for their income.
If you love gambling and characters like I do, check out AC Butch,
you'll be amazed at what this Brooklyn born and raised Street kid has
accomplished, and is still accomplishing on an on-going basis.
