My roommate was shooting pool this evening at a bar, and got in a fight for telling some guy's girlfriend that her shot went in "off the titty".

Here is an example of use from the Mosconi Cup XXVI - 2019-11-26, courtesy of DAZN (I think). set #9, rack #3:
It was on day 2, in the fourth set (Billy/Skyler vs. Kazakis/Feijen), game 3 (set #9 overall) - and the dialog is between break and first shot. It ended with a great shot for the situation.
Billy Thorpe, to Skyler Woodward (before the safety shot):
It's tough, for sure, that titty's in the way.
Game Announcer:
If you heard Billy say titty there, that's what we call "the jaw" on an American-style pool table.
Billy Thorpe to Skyler Woordward (after the safety shot):
Good shot... Fuck man that's all you had, you couldn't even cut it because that fuckin' tittys in the way.
