Anyone in or near Indiana, Please Read
« on: September 14, 2008, 01:04:36 PM »
Today I bowled in a tournament at maple city lanes(I believe that's the name of the place) in Goshen, IN and had a ball stolen from me. The ball is a 900 global break pearl with the pin above the bridge and MB just right of the thumb(though I'm sure whoever stole it will plug it).

There were bowlers from many different states surrounding Indiana, so if you live in a bordering state or in Indiana, could you please keep an eye out for this ball for me? PM me if you see or hear anything please.

Ugh this really sucks. I never even took the ball out of my bag today. Someone just opened up my bag and walked off with it. Can you believe some people?

Thanks to everyone keeping their eyes peeled for me. I really appreciate it!

Do you have the balls serial number?

You might be able to track the number down by contacting the pro shop it was drilled at.  Most distributors keep track of serial numbers and what gets sent where.

I don't have the serial number, but i do have the box from the ball back at home (I'm at school away from home) I'm pretty sure. I'm not sure if the box would have the serial number, but I can call my mom tomorrow and see if she can check it for me. If not I'll call the pro shop for sure. Thanks by the way. That's probably a good piece of information to have.

What is it with the thieves here in Indiana?  Just a few weeks ago, four of my balls and my shoes were stolen here in Muncie.

I bowl in the NW Indiana area and the SW Michigan area. I will look around. I have not seen any Break Pearls in use around here (except mine!) That ball sticks out on any return. Should be easy to spot. I will keep an eye out.

The serial number is 06B16QE3C6 I'm not totally positive on that though, because it is from my mom reading it to me off the box on the phone. Also, I don't think I mentioned it, but it was a youth tournament, so it's probably a kid/teenager who took it.

Thanks to everyone keeping an eye out for me!
