Air hockey table at Julep

Last August I wrote a fairly positive review of the pool table at Julep. The bar had just relocated from across Avenue A and moved its pool table from the very back of the bar up to the front. Fast forward to, oh, about three or four months ago. I was walking by Julep and noticed an air hockey table had taken its place. By no means was I upset, as Julep is so far out of my regular pool playing circuit, its gravitational pull on me is negligible. It was more amusing than anything. I actually thought it made more sense to have the air hockey table because the space was too small for a pool table anyway. And an air hockey table requires way less space surrounding it than a pool table. So cheers to Julep for coming up with a workable solution. Could air hockey be the next big fad? We'll see. I took the bottom photo walking back from Sophie's one blurry night. It was literally the last picture on the roll, so my apologies for not "working it" more.
