I have a billiard break cue, it's hollow steel pipe with brass and galvanized fittings to screw it together. Based off the material, original colors, and general look it's probably from the early 70's.
Without fail, if a drunk person finds out it's hollow they get super weird about it. They hand it back like it's a writhing appendage, avoid using it when offered, even had a guy drop it like it was gonna bite him. Either way, I play better with it than I ever did before, and I gave it a gorgeous glossy crimson repaint.
