I understand that it was popular at the original Playboy Club. Some of the bunnies were designated "Bumper Pool Bunnies" who played bumper pool with the customers for a certain price per game.
Had a beautiful slate-top bumper pool table in our house growing up — it was once a pay table, with a slot for quarters. My Dad was an expert player; jumping the bumpers was a key skill.
This is bumper pool and a whole lot fun you each take turns trying to get three balls into the other person's hole shooting one ball at a time. The best place to hit the pall towards to get it into the other person's goal is the point of the wall that is directlt parallel to the horizontal part of the t in the center of the pool table.
All comments must be civil and helpful toward finding an answer.

I've never seen a bumper pool table that was a pay table, that's kind of cool.
We had an octagonal bumper pool table in the basement when I was a kid. We ended up inventing new games on it.
Shit is fun had one in my basement
I would have loved this more if this guy asked "what is this pool table with bumpers on it called?"
TIL there is a linebacker at Arkansas University named Bumper Pool.
I actually didn’t know that this was a real game! I first saw a bumper pool table on American Dad

My uncle had one in his basement when I was a kid back in the 80’s.
It's actually fun, but a novelty. It's good for those that don't play often.

Loved playing this as a kid. Tables were everywhere then.
