In regard to the question below, about your MO after a strike, why do most people have such a strong reaction?

Please no one be insulted, I know that nearly everyone does something, but, especially for the people who get a lot of strikes, doesn't anyone subscribe to the policy of "act like you've been there before?"

I can understand a 140 average bowler, who may get 2-3 strikes a night, having a genuine exciting moment after a strike, but for those who get 10-20 a night, wouldn't it be more appropriate to just go and sit down?

I'm not talking about the 11th or 12th strike in a 300, or an 800, or even when you strike to clinch your point or the team game or whatever.  I just mean, on a normal strike.  I mean, isn't that the point, to knock them all over, if possible?

I understand, people are drinking and having a good time and I don't want to discourage anyone from enjoying bowling, too many people are quitting as it is.

I just find it impossible to celebrate every strike.  I guess I am just low-key, compared to the average bowler.

I just walk back to seating area if it's not a crucial(to the game outcome) strike.

However, when I successfully convert a ten pen, I take a Micheal Jackson style moon walk across a couple of lanes before finishing with a Heisman trophy pose.   

I stopped following the original thread at the beginning so I didn't know there was a lot of strong reactions.

I will say my post in that thread was in jest.  I might give a fist pump at key moments, but mostly I don't do anything.  In fact, the most reaction I give is when I get a strike I feel I don't deserve.  At those times I am apologizing profusely to the other team.  I hate losing to so-called "lucky strikes".
