George Gohagan III(GG3) rolls 899. On Film.
« on: April 08, 2007, 07:22:10 AM »
Creeped by this on youtube.  The flashy lefty who is a PBA member rolled an 899 a month or two back with a Storm T Road Pearl.  Here's footage of the last few frames.  I think the cameraman was more nervous than GG3.

Feel the excitement? LOL

If you actually did it... congratulations.  

The dress code remark has more to do about the "Dress Code" thread from about the same time, and the fact that your dress resembled what most people in that thread were complaining about (ie wearing a hat and jeans, and not wearing slacks and a bowling shirt).  Take it personally if you want, doesn't effect me one way or another.  I called it like I saw it.
Right Handed

I have to agree with what has been said,most bowling stops if someone is about to bowl ONE 300.If someone was on for a 900 you would be able to hear a pin drop between shots.

I would have got away with it if it was not for those pesky kids (Behind my lane) and those blasted 10 pins.

Don't know what league you're bowling in, but 300's in some of the classic leagues I've bowled in are about as common and boring as someone picking up a 6-7-10.  Sad consequences of what bowling has done to honor scores.

About 3 years ago...I was 6 pairs down from someone who went 300-300-278.  It wasn't even until after the 2nd 300 that I even heard someone talking about it.

15 years ago when I was in junior leagues...a 17-year kid had the front 9 and when he went for the 300 in the tenth (which he got)...the ENTIRE 48-LANE house stopped and crowded behind his pair to watch.  You could hear a pin drop.  Shows you what 15 years, resin, and easy lane conditions can do.

George,

Don't let them get to you.  You have a tremendous amount of talent.  I am just sorry I didn't stay longer than night.

Why are some of you guys ripping on this guy for shooting a good series.  I don't care if it's on the biggest wall of china, it's still awesome that he threw 34 straight strikes.

Great bowling!

Now the camera man shouldn't quit his day job!   Just kidding!  Good to get it on vid.

I don't care how good someone is. That many 800's in 3 months is ridiculous. Yes they must be good but come on. John Chacko bowls in his parents house and has around 90 and hasn't bowled that many in three months.

The Cameraman sounds like Jim Ross from WWE Raw when he rolled the Tre and left a ringing 7. Great bowling and Excellent composure under pressure.

Oops, my fault..  I thought someone told me that is who he was...  

Looks like I am the idiot now, thanks for correcting me...
