    See...I ALWAYS watch all the pins fall down before turning around and walking back because no matter how unlikely...in the back of my mind I'm always worried something like that would happen.

    What was his expression after he realized it was still standing? And what the hell country is Lietuvu??
    Would have been scored as a nine. As long as the machine didn't knock it down He would have had to shoot it where it ended up.

    Wow, that looked like the head pin off the wall and stands as an eight pin. The spot for the 8 is like 3 feet back from the 1 pin. That pin must have been new, with a very flat bottom ( no wear or rounded ). Good find.

    Lol.....can you imagine that happening on a shot to win a tournament? I'd probably just crumple up in the fetal position on the approach for a few hours....

    Oh yeah. I remember that. Bill O'Neill I bet was really ticked off. Imagine if that were to happen on a 12th shot for a 300 game

    Talking about a bad break, have you ever seen that clip of the guy's 12th shot and the rack comes down? Look up horrific bowling accident on youtube.
