Witnessed something special
« on: March 11, 2004, 09:35:13 PM »
Lastnight in league, a good friend of mine had a very special night.  

First off, about my friend.  Eric has had several 300's and recently had a 800 series.  Eric bowls in the Earl Doty Classic at Southern Bowl in Indiana and averages around 220 so far this year in his leagues.  He's a very accurate and smooth bowler and is very successful in the sport/game he plays.

What happened lastnight was the first I have seen.  I have seen many 300's, and 800's over my years of bowling.  But I have never seen back to back 300's like I did lastnight.  He went the first 29 strikes before the 10-pin bit him.  He ended up with a 243 (strikes to the tenth then a POCKET 4-9, went for the spare for the City record for series).

He doesn't know I have poseted this but I thought this feat was something very few get to see and I wanted to share with all of you the impressive skill shown lastnight.

Rick.

FYI...  www.leaguesecretary.com league 744 Team 12, Eric Aquila.  The series will show on the updated sheets by the weekend.
