Funny, but sad story here. A buddy of mine had 12 strikes in one game and only shot 299 last night. How you ask? He had the first 9 and got up to throw the 10th shot and crushed the hole: Strike! Someone brought it to his attention that he shot it on the wrong lane! So he gets himself on the correct lane and strikes on the 10th and 11th and a 9-count on the fill ball. So there you have 12 strikes in one game and shoot 299. I'm kinda glad it wasn't me!
