If you think those guys are bad you should bowl in a seniors mixed league, some of those people take forever to start their approach. And one woman walks so slow I could take a bathroom break. Of course she averages abt 160.
We have one of these guys in my league. He drags his foot, and slide back to the right long after throwing the ball. My teammate can't stand it, and has gone as far as threatening to beat him up. I don't see the need for that. Just wait until they're done with thier theatrics and then bowl.

like everyone else said not a foul. You just have to let him do his thing and avoid him. People do that all the time in the leagues I bowl in.
I am "that guy" I start out on the far left dot and will walk all the way to the gutter of my lane and the left lane. I even have a pretty big leg kick that I am sure ends up halfway in the left lane. I just make sure no one is even close to shooting before I go. and I move back to the middle of my lane before the ball hits the pins
I love watching other people. hahaha. I'm the patient type, so it doesn't bother me unless something's going on that could cause injury.
I especially love the people who have that plant stop (well, I have a plant stop, but...) but the stop is so abrupt they have to take a couple stutter steps to keep their balance after release. We have a guy like that in our league, and he has to be one of the nicest guys anyone could ever meet, but when he bowls it's cartoonish! hahaha. I'm telling you, that guy always looks like he is going to fall or foul. It will happen sooner or later!
Not helping the situation since 1983.
