"This shot is called "Just Showing Off" - and the history behind that is that Steve Mizerak, in the 70s, did a Miller Lite commercial, where he shot the shot - he had a mug of beer on the table - and before the cue ball could hit it, he picked it up and said "ah, I'm just showing off."
So the idea behind this shot is that the 2 ball -- I'm gonna hit the cue ball into the 2 ball, the 2 ball's gonna hit off the 3 and carry into the side pocket here. The 1 is gonna bank across and go in that side. The 6 ball is gonna fall into this pocket, the 3 is gonna go into the corner. The 8 ball is gonna go into that corner, the cue ball is just gonna barely miss it on the way around, it's gonna hit into the beautiful Delta 13 rack, and make the 4 ball."
