Thought up a new bowling game...
« on: November 21, 2008, 03:52:36 AM »
Me and a buddy were talking about the winter olympics, specifically the strange sport called the biathalon. (Where cross-country skiers ski with a gun on their back and occassionally stop for target shooting.)  It occured to me that a great new bowling game would be "bowlathalon".  Each bolwer would strap a paint gun pistol on the inside of his slide leg and after he throws his first ball, he gets one shot with the paint gun pistol to take out any remaining pins (you have to get the shot off after the ball hits the pins but before the pin setter comes down.  Be a great way to take care of the pesky single pins, or to turn a 7-10 split into a makeable spare.

Just need to buy a really crappy bowling center and a whole buttload of paint gun gear to set it up.  Who's game to participate in the first Bowlathalon?

I'm hella game for this!

Better be a slow rack. Fast rack comes down before the ball gets off the deck!

What do you think the paint would do to the balls and pin setter?  Lol.  You might get through a game at most.

I'm thinking that maybe we can get our hands on ammo that are filled with something less gooey than paint.  AAnybody know if there are balls that shoot from paintball guns that are filled with something like colored water or something?
