Abstract
A portable bridge for use with a cue stick in a game of billiards. The bridge has a base with support means. An upright arm is connected to the base. The upright arm has at least one opening therein through which the cue stick is slidably received. In one embodiment, the front of the base has a concave end formed therein. When the cue stick is lifted, the concave top of the base engages a portion of a cue stick, the back of the base drops away from the cue stick and the portable bridge may be lifted and moved as desired. In an alternate embodiment, a keeper is provided to be manually adjusted on the cue stick, which prevents the cue stick from being withdrawn through the opening in the upright arm. The portable bridge may be lifted and moved to a desired location. The keeper may be manually adjusted to permit withdrawal of the cue stick from the opening in the upright arm.
