Roughly 99.7% of all shuffleboard tables belong in dive bars. But then there’s the one shuffleboard table that’s made of reclaimed oak and welded steel with stitched leather gutters. If a Museum of Modern Shuffleboard Art existed, it would belong there. But it doesn’t, so try your basement instead.
