Front eleven =290
« on: August 26, 2009, 06:05:42 AM »
Has anyone ever witnessed a 290 game with the first 11 then a gutter or foul on the 12th shot?
I have seen 3 with  front 11 then gutter.The first was a friend of mine about 17 years ago.The other 2 were women about 7 years ago.I have never seen front 11 then foul.

I've seen someone throw 12 strikes in a game and shoot 290.

my brother did that once. he was going for his first 300. ball started falling out of his hand on the downswing and couldn't stop and it went straight into the gutter.

I assume the person bowled on the wrong lane one frame and had to rebowl that frame on the correct lane.

Technically it was a gutter ball the first shot with a spare and then the next 11. But it was 12 strikes.

No, it wasnt 12 strikes. He knocked 10 pins down 12 times in a row. He spared the first frame. Not a strike.

I know it's not considered a strike.

*raises hand*

i've actually done this.... 12th ball went into the gutter...

i still have that 11 in a row plaque too... kind of funny to see strikes marked in each frame on it and a dash on that last one...

OH WELL...
