878 tonight
« on: January 07, 2009, 11:47:26 AM »
It wasn't me. It was a good friend of mine who I bowled against tonight. He missed tying the house record (St.Angelo's 30 Lanes) by one pin.That record has stood for 20-some years. I should also add that this is not the easiest of houses. His scores tonight are the first honor scores in this house this year.

10-pin in 6th frame of game two, and 7-pin on the last ball of the evening. He threw all 36 balls in the pocket. Sure, a few of them could have left a ten or something, but the bowling gods were looking down on him tonight. I wish he could have carried twice more!

Congrats to Doug Moyer! 300-279-299=878

So that's where my strikes went.  I guess they helped someone.

Yeah, I thought about the whole figjam thing, but I don't care. He is a great guy, and to make things even better, his Dad bowls on the same team. You want to talk about a proud Papa?! What a night. I'm glad I was on the same pair to see it.
