    Yeah, it is for the Storm balls because they throw a scent in their balls. Does your summer leagues give you anything for those 300s?

    That's called a Varipapa 300 after Andy Varipapa who liked to count any 12 consecutive strikes as a 300 game.

    I had never heard of anyone calling Storm balls air fresheners, but I do find it funny since my wife will always point out how nice the car smells after leaving my bowling balls in the trunk over night

    Wow! You are not mortal! I put a LOT more credit on 800's, vs 300 games!! 13 800's, and you don't even keep track of practice 800's?

    One night of summer league I bowed 290,290, 239. I was so upset about the last game until the next day. I needed a 263 to break the house record. The following week 299, 290 (gutter, spare 11 in a row), 250 to miss the record by 4 pins. The funny thing is I've yet to break 800 with a 300 game.
