Anyone else participate in one?
You buy raffle tickets. If your ticket is drawn, you draw from a deck of cards. You need to knock down the number of pins that corresponds with the face value of the card you selected.

I finally had my ticket drawn last night, and wouldn't you know it...I draw a "4" out of the deck. Ranks right up there with a "2". I threw my spare ball across the alley and hit the 6-10 squarely, which took out the 9 as well. The 9 kicked back around and took out the 2, 4, 7, and 8. I still won $7 for my pin count, but missed out on the $137 that was in the pot. Carry over for next week

What's the best way to get a 4-count?

Really about the only time I get 4 pins is when I leave a nasty split. Which thank goodness is not very often.

Seems the best odds would be to shoot for taking out the 3-6-9-10.  I've seen it done on accident, but I think coming into the 3 slightly right of center - think of taking the 3-9 almost straight back but with the ball catching just enough of the 6 to get the 10.

Ive gotten 2 on the Shark Pattern.

What makes the story really interesting is that I got 0 on the second ball, and I didn't throw it in the gutter.
