Taylor is a six time Irish snooker champion and a one time World Trick Shot champion so it was no surprise when he began showing the audience his the trick shots he could do on a full size snooker table.

Two people attending were able to play a snooker game against Taylor after bets were placed in an auction. Others received Taylor signed snooker cues as raffle prizes. Bingo was also played during the event as Barry Brown played MC for the night.
