I went bowling a few weeks ago, and I just HAD to take a picture of the score!!!


As you can tell from the seventh frame (a 51! :eek:), I was doing HORRIBLE in this game! Well, up to the seventh frame, that is. :D

What happened after that? I have NO idea. But I wish I knew so I could do it again! :D
01-05-08_1113.jpg

Yes, yes, yes...that's FIVE strikes in a row. I'd never had more than three in a row, and those VERY few and far between.

It's amazing how I could have a 51 in the seventh frame, and then end up coming within 9 points of my highest score ever (150).

I was really stoked! :D:D

    I thought bowling was for old men and women? Like senior leagues and stuff?

    The only bowling I do......nevermind.

    Hahaha, you old ****!!!!

    I probably average 90-110. Though for about a month my average was closer to 120. That was exciting. For that month.

    Bowling's great. Any sport where you can drink while playing is a good sport :)

    I do suck at it though. I doubt I've ever come close to 150.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    The young folks should go and bowl 5 or 6 games with a 16 pound ball. Just a warm-up for the old farts on the PBA.

    I took bowling in college too. If you think that's bad for a P.E., my other credit was "Intro to Massage"... it was such a hard choice deciding which sorority hottie would get the priviledge each week. :p

    I rarely bowl. Last time I did at a work event, I had just the right amount of alcohol and adrenaline in my system and nearly bowled a 200 game. However, I think surpassed the sweet spot of Blood Alcohol Level and quickly declined in ability.

    I used to bowl with a 15 or 16 pound ball. Years ago, that is. I have NO idea how I did that. Now I'm either bowling with an 8, 10, 11, or 13 pound ball, depending on what I'm trying to do. Usually 10 or 11, though.
