Hello from Chicago

[frankteo]

Hey I'm Frank and I'm from Chicago. I'm 22 years old and just started bowling again about 2 months ago. I average about 130 right now, but hope to increase that in the coming weeks.

Hi Frankteo,

Welcome to the Bowling Boards Forum. I am fairly new myself. This is a good place to learn from other bowlers and get information on just about any bowling subject there is. And some subjects that aren't about bowling. If you are asking questions, it helps to have some basic information listed in your profile so those trying to assist know a little about your equipment and skill level.

Happy Holidays,
Tom

What part of Chicago are you from? I grew up in Bridgeport, then Brighton/McKinley Park.

[frankteo]

I'm actually just outside of Chicago in Rosemont. Right next to O'hare.

I lived in Joliet for a couple of years before my office got moved to Indianapolis.

I've been to the casino there a few times.

I know Rosemont. We stayed there the last time I was back home because it was close to Beatlefest. Also, being close to a Giordano's was a big selling point. I lived in Elmwood Park out that way before I moved away from the area. We're sort of planning a return trip this year, but so far we've gotten two invitations to stay with friends, so Rosemont might lose out. :)

Welcome Frank! Are you or your team rolling the 101st Chicagoland USBC Open Championship Tournament at River Rand Bowl in Des Plaines this coming February?
