Huge loss for the bowling world. Covid sucks.

Sorry to hear this.  Was it actually from Covid, or something else?

This really sucks.  The bowling community lost a huge part of itself.  I was really hoping to have the opportunity to see him again as I learned a lot from speaking to him and watching his youtube videos.  RIP MO!!!!  You were one of a kind, sir.

Had the immense pleasure of speaking with Mo for over an hour about problems with our wood lanes and even had him measure me.

It was at a Morich seminar and he watched us bowl. To be told by Mo that I had an awesome game was the biggest buzz I’ve ever had in this or any sport.

He is irreplaceable in this sport and will be sorely missed. My thoughts go out to his friends and family.

RIP Mo, thank you for being you.

Yes! It was Covid! He made the very unfortunate decision to do a speaking engagement in New Orleans, La. where they are all pretending that covid doesn't exist!

Most of the folks down there are running around totally maskless!

SMH!

RIP Mo Pinel!
Some days you're the bug....some days you're the windshield...that's bowling!

RIP Mo.  The bowling world is a little less rich without you in it.  The whole community mourns your loss and celebrates your life.  Hope you're in a much better place now.
Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.

I saw this on FB, very sad. I picked up a few Radical balls and Mo was quick to respond to some of my layout questions. I watched all his videos many times.

This is still such a shock to me. He just posted a Mo Monday video last week and then he was gone by the end of the week. This is a big loss to the bowling community. RIP Mo.
