VIDEO: Meet B.C. man named Canada’s first-ever foosball hall-of-famer
Trophies line a corner and a stained glass overhead spotlights a professional grade foosball table in a corner room of a suburban Victoria home.
Dunn was the first Canadian to reach the rank of pro-master – the top level on tour – and the first member of the Canada Foosball Hall of Fame. “I used to skip classes and practise foosball for countless hours,” he said. “First it was just a fun game to play, but then I started to go to tournaments at bars to win bar tabs.”“Before I bought a bed or anything else I bought a table,” Dunn said with a laugh.
“You’d hope to pay for your trip or expenses,” Dunn said. Small wins of titles or tourneys were a means to the long-term goal of becoming a pro-master.
