SEATTLE, Wash. (February 6, 2009) – In the words of virtually everyone who was a part of the PBA’s 50th Anniversary Gala in Las Vegas, it was an event they will never forget.

Subscribers of Xtra Frame, the PBA’s online source for exclusive video programming, can relive the evening’s lineup of introductions, Hall of Fame inductions and the presentation of the 50 Greatest Players in PBA History.
The Charleston Ballroom at Red Rock was a “Who’s Who in Bowling,” packed with superstars past-and-present, industry leaders, long-time PBA support staff members and awe-struck fans of the sport. The crowd witnessed an event-closing parade of 38 of the players named to the list of the PBA’s 50 Greatest Players and welcomed John Handegard, Del Ballard Jr. and Norm Duke to the PBA Hall of Fame.
