Very sad, but 94 is a robust number. One of the funniest people to ever live.

Think he must have been the last one standing from that great show, Pullman Spencer, David, Charlton all gone
Did you know Alex Higgins was banned from the show because he brought in prostitutes to the show and swore after he missed a shot

Very sad that ol Dracula has gone. He was a gentleman and a nice bloke. There's still a few about from the show that went to 1986. White, Davis, Griffiths, D Taylor, K Stevens, Foulds, Thorburn, etc.
When Alex came to do an exhibition night at The Southern Snooker Hall, Alexandra Street, it started so well, but at the end of the night, once he was a nasty drunkard, all hell broke loose. I can tell you all about it, probably best not on this thread though. He even tried to fight me, along with a few others, Lol.

I can imagine Higgins being like that, similar to Oliver Read unpredictable when fueled with drink/ drugs
On original post I meant last man from the original first couple of series x

Being basically a soul man in my younger days, I knew this was not true. So to be sure, I looked it up. Causes of death were Liver cancer, cancer, Lung cancer, and a heart attack in his sleep.
