Anyone else notice they never interviewed 900Global/AMF on the show? or did I sleep threw that one.

I noticed that too. I wonder if the Storm booth will have 900 stuff, since they purchased the company.

When did Storm purchase 900 Global?  I know Storm now has a financial interest according to storms website but it doesn't state they purchased them.

rumor has it that storm will run normal operations with 900 global until the end of the year. storm is now the majority stockholder for 900 global llc. also have very good inside knowledge that the amf brand will be phased out after this year. But 900 Global and Seismic balls will still be produced under normal operation

I read about it early last week, can't remember where it was posted but it was on here somewhere.

Strapper,
      Have you looked down in the Showcase lanes area? Last year that was where the Global900/AMF booth was.

Strapper, Tex,
     Thanks, I know I missed the Global900/AMF booth last year until we went down to the Showcase Lanes for a practice session. Thought I would throw that out there.
 
     Based on what it sounded like when Storm bought a portion of the business, they had some cashflow issues. Perhaps that did not allow them to fund a booth this year?
