Michael bowls a 300!!!!!

[MICHAEL]

What about game 3? why didn't you shoot another 300 and get that 800?

I was soooooo shook up, people buying me drinks, grabbing and ripping bits and pieces of clothing off me, wanting my autograph, I was so distracted! Remember I don't drink at all, but found myself downing beer and butterscotch snopes! WELL,,,, lol time everything settled down, I didn't know which lane I was on.... lol,,, every thing looked a blur!!! I know it was over 100,,, but can't remember much about that third game.... lol

Next time I will have to compose myself and go for that 800!! Who knows.... LOL God I love bowling!!!!

Not really,,, I am so use to ALMOST GETTING IT, I thought to myself, well here goes another one South!! A few weeks ago I had a league 290.... first frame Stone 10 pin,,, then 11 stirkes. I have had so many almost games,,,, I figured this was going to be another 279,,280 ect ect... I think if this was the first time I had been in that position, I bet it would have been nerve racking!!! At 64, most of my nerves are dead, and gone, dried up!! LOL

Ok, the USBC only gives one award per year, per bowler. Did the league request your 11 in a row award? If so, are you sure you will get a 300 ring?
If I'm misunderstanding this rule I'm sure Bowl1820 will correct me.

Yes they just called today, ( the manufacture of my precious ring lol) Wanted to make sure all the upgrades and spelling were correct. Said it should be here in 4 to six weeks, or sooner. I will take a picture of it, and post! I also bowl on a seniors league, and its not sanctioned! That league has the NEW High Tech Oil machine that runs on batteries, (kegal) not sure if that spelling is correct, It sprays the oil on the lane rather then uses wicks. It is the best oil in town!!!
Funny I have had some great games there, but can't collect on the shooting due to being unsanctioned!! (.

The day I had the 300,,, there were on other lanes, a lot of great scores, and series! So some times the oil is right on,,,,lol,,,, You never know at those lanes what to expect. Pro Bowl in NKC... with the new technology is consistent!! Maybe I need to bowl a sanctioned league there!

[MICHAEL]

I have others,,, lol several but all were on the (NO PRESSURE LOL seniors league with my beautiful wife Manic/Joyce)! We both LOVE TO Bowl, and she is ONE heck of woman bowler,,, but like all of us, she has her ups and downs....... NOT UNLIKE ME,,,, THE ICEMAN!!

That's not the model we have at NKC Pro Bowl. OURS moves differently from lane to lane, (much smoother, and cool), AND IT has NO POWER cord that needs to be tended to. It runs on batteries! They set it up at the start point, program it go do what ever lanes they want, and take off. They don't even have a mechanic there watching it anymore its so dependable!
