This is so full of win I haven't laughed so hard in years. Great stuff from the legendary iceman who is wearing female anatomy on his t-shirt. Google it.
What are the vegas odds on ICEMAN VS. THE LION? Will that dude be there to say "leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet's get ready to rumble"? Can I place a bet on either or yet and what sports book has the best odds? Or is vdub the bookie and we can call him to place bets? Will Rob's wife cook us a hearty home cooked meal?
SO MANY QUESTIONS.
Like the owl and the tootsie pop only time will tell....
I'm booking my flight soon. I will be staying on the strip somewhere. Someone PM or email me the details or post them here on time, place, etc. of this bowling extravaganza. I will give Mrs. Mudpuppy $500 to gamble and sneak out the back door of the casino. On nickel slots that will keep her busy long enough that I can bowl and be back at the craps table before she realizes I am gone.
If only bowling was a sport where the size of one's muscles mattered?? If only.
Keep working out Iceman...maybe then ya can stop throwing female 14lb equipment and step up with the big boys to 15-16lbs.
As a sidebet, thinking on the idea below...I'd like to add a Aslan/Iceman sidebet that the winner gets to choose the loser's (aka Iceman) avatar that the loser must use as his avatar for 6 months. Obviously, as Bowl1820 would elaborate on, the avatar must be family friendly, in good taste, and in compliance with the terms and code of conduct of the website.
Thus far, the tournament info is:
Wednesday, September 24th at ??:?? ?M
The current proposed location is Gold Coast Casino/Resort, Las Vegas, NV. (however, there is some suggestion of a randomized venue)
Participants:
Confirmed: Aslan, Iceman, Rob M., Mudpuppy
Possibles: Gene, Mike W, others??
FORMAT:
Standard Singles Format.
Randomly draw for bowling order or let Iceman choose as a birthday present??
4 games, first for practice, the next 3 count.
SCRATCH tournament
Players that tie will bowl a 4th game as a tiebreaker.
Other details:
Cost: Split between participants evenly.
Video: Video to be handled by either Iceman or Mudpuppy.
Rules: USBC
I'd also like to do this while the pro shop is open so prior to the tournament we can have Iceman's equipment checked for weight, size, roundness, etc... as there have been some rumors floating around Missouri that his bowling balls may not be strictly USBC compliant.

Smokey this is not 'Nam', this is bowling. There are rules. Proud two-time winner of a bowlingboards.com weekly ball give-away!
I soooo wish my September vacation was solo, as I would make a detour and come be the official scorer. This is a sight that would well be worth the detour. But, not to be. Good luck to all. Maybe I'll just place my bet with VdubTx the bookie.![]()

I am doing some reseach on my own,,, what about Sams Town, I stayed there once and won some pretty good money, while listening to a Evils impersonator sings on stage!!

I will probably be making the trip alone, Gene is still working for a living!

Standard Singles Format.

I am still thinking about the format,,, many options,,,, let me think a while on the format... In the end,,, I guess it really doesn't matter!!!
ICEMAN wins, Alsan becomes Kitty Cat!

Sounds fair, but Iceman is not going to Video anything,,,, I will be in the ZONE!!!

OOOOOOO,,, Aslan, my little kitty cat,,, you know how to yank my chains...I look forward to your demise on the level playing field of the bowling lanes..... Ask Bob,,, I mean Rob,,, if Sam's Town lanes are worth a darn?? I had a dream about that place last night!!]

This is definitely going to be fun. I got to get on the boss about booking flights for vegas - tick tock. Funny we were going during that time anyways. Works out good.
I just got a brand new GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition that shoots up to 4K video. I am not as cool as Belmo with the google glass but I do have a chest mount I could wear and basically video my perspective on the event. Might have to test it out when shooting VBT this month which I will probably do next week.
Mayday alpha zebra mayday. Fun governor aka Boss doesn't want to leave until Thursday. Working on seeing if I can leave a day or two earlier so I can make the tourney.
