Thanks for sharing.  It''s always nice to watch the excitement (or frustration) associated with going for honor scores.  Hopefully this will spark others into doing the same thing since just about every cell phone these days takes video.

Was it me or was he starting from the linoleum as opposed to the actual approach?  Either way, thanks for posting this.  Pretty cool.

Looked like the last got was a little more right of the first two, which would explain the 10 pin. Still an amazing effort!

No one was moving....well....within reason.  That place was so quiet.  All you could hear were the machines in the back as everyone waited.

Yes Steven, as Jim mentioned, he stands way back.  The place used to have step up approached and literally he would be that close to falling off backwards.

I was thinking, why the hell is the dude on the right lane NOT bowling.

The people at the table must've been his opponents

Just shows how easy bowling has become (especially with a robocop wrist brace).  

If he was a lefty he would have got the 900!

Based on your ignorant statements....you must (a) be a righty and (b) not use a wrist brace.  I've assumed this because you have no 900 series to your name yet in your profile.  

When you do.....make sure you update it.  We'll all be waiting to see.
