What became of Fats

After 15 years unbeaten, this has left Fats in a dilemna. He's still a great pool player but the air of invincibility has gone. Does he carry on taking on allcomers or retire? Is he now on the slide? What the hell else is there for him to do? I liked Fats, I'm glad Eddie beat him, but Fats was an ok guy.

Well the real world Fats went around and sold pool tables to people, so perhaps this one did too.
