300 at age 81 - Congratulations to Charlie Nye
« on: December 28, 2007, 12:28:17 PM »
I was bowling against a friend of mine here in southern Wisconsin tonight.  His father retired from here and moved to Florida some twenty years ago.  His dad, Charlie Nye, shot 300 this week in Ft. Lauderdale at the age of 81.  This latest 300 was his first in thirty years.  Congratulations, Charlie!

Hey! I still have 25 more years to accomplish it

Wonder if he's the oldest person who ever shot that? Amazing!

I still have 45 years to accomplish it.

Congrats to him. What a way to prove to the young kids that no matter what age, you can always bowl and bowl well.
