Worst outing on the lanes
« on: April 27, 2005, 04:00:41 PM »
a buddy of mine went 00X/000000 for 89.  His average is 193 in one league and 186 in another.
The game before, he went 3- XXXXX 9/ 3- 4- 35 = 173

the 9/ was a buried 8 pin.  the 5 strikes were descent...well 3 of them were haha.  We were at this centre with ball returns above ground, haven't been dressed for 2-3 days.  The middle of the lane was all burnt up...to the point that house balls were making a nice arc.  If the ball never got outside the 10 board it was gunning for that 4 pin!!!

Anybody have a worse outing than that??? lets hear some comments...

lol...thats what i told the guy.  he was using a demolition zone.
he shot 146 his 3rd game with a house ball (striking 4x in 9-10-11-12).
Still I say this one is a keeper...one i'll ALWAYS remember and laugh at.

I had a night in league where I had a 383 series while avg 201 at the time. Left 15 7 pins and pretty much missed all but 2 of them. Couple of splits and washout later added into the mix and you get a couple of consistently bad 130 games. It got to the point where if I didnt strike with one ball, I would switch to another one. No strike....switch balls again. Too many beers that night as well.
