Don't shoot!  I might worry about being assassinated If I was a member of the Roto Grip Regime.  It just has an Iraqi feel to it.  HAHA

Even know it was just as bad, another user had in their signature:

Member of the Roto Grip Cult

I thought it was cool, but if you take this sight too seriously you might be offended by that.  

I like the ideas as long as it stays playful and not too serious.  Does anyone have any other suggestions?  

Thanks,

What is the phrase? "Roto-Grip, King of them all" or something like that. I've always like that.

Hilarious!  There are some good ideas though.  

Why not put it to a vote:  

1)  Roto Heads
2)  Roto Grip Rebels
3)  Roto Grip Revolutionaries
4)  Roto Stars

PM me your vote and I'll tally them up.  

King of them All was actually the original slogan from the first owners of Roto Grip.  Because they were so unique they went with that name (RH and LH balls, bigger bowling balls, etc...).  I thought it was a great idea to bring back, so we started running with it again in 2003.

Thanks for the info Roger. I thought I had seen that on a web site or something, so it just seemed like a natural tagline for us Roto fans.

I'm not big on the militant Roto Rebels.... Regime....Revolutionaries...ect.

The "King Of Them All" simply sums it up.

Thanks,

Hmmmm, which of Jeffrev's new clique(s) should I join?  I throw everything.  Roto might be a good choice.  I only have two, but have honor scores with both.  I certainly don't need it, but would like to have a RS-X.  A low RG solid resin ball is something I haven't thrown in quite a while.

It's not political correctness, It's comfort level. So lets not throwing around inflammatory labels. It's not really necessary.

Now you make me look like the bad guy here.  I'd have to say a ball is a bit much for ballreviews "club name".  If we were naming an actual bowling ball or picking a color, a ball would be appropriate.  I think we can offer a shirt though.  

I only had one vote though in my inbox as of today.  If you are seriously interested in the contest, please PM me your "club name" idea.    

Thanks,

How about the "Corner Pin Crew"?



....just joking, you guys make great stuff, and alot of people are satified with it and the customer serive.  I think it's a little special when a bowler is brand loyal when they don't have to be in such a huge market.  Customer Loyalty & Satisfaction is the name of the game.

....now Bowlingmytmouse, if you wanna start a "Corner Pin Crew" I'll nominate you for President as long as you give me a nod for Vice President of "The World Class Washout Club"(...we both know who the president should be.  The innocent's name will stay protected for now).

What I'm saying is....I picked Regime because it's another name for "organization" and it starts with an "R" ...it seems it was too "Iraqi" or something ....that's why I said it's not about being politically correct...it's just ballreviews and a name for Roto Grip fans....so when you said "inflammatory" ....you lost me.....

anyhow...there is not a certain name that is being "picked" over another....so

I like my original, the Roto Grip Regime or RGR !
I also really like Roto Rebels
And I also like Rogers Roto Stars...

Do we all think these 3 could be considered ?

Roto Kingdom...where Roto Grip is DEFINITELY, KING OF THEM ALL!
