Thread: Wealthiest PBA bowler out there?

  1. #1

    Default Wealthiest PBA bowler out there?

    My guess is John Burkett (former MLB player). Of course he got his riches outside of bowling but I figure he is probably the most well off.

    If you go strictly by bowlers, you have to say that Petraglia Sr., Norm Duke, WRW Jr., Parker Bohn, PDW and probably a couple of others fit that list.

    Agreed, from a purely bowling income standpoint WRW is the king.

    But John Burkett (pretty sure he holds a PBA card) made almost $38M off baseball

    I know of a guy here in town who now has a PBA card, and won $50 million in the lottery.

    I wonder who makes the most endorsement money? It's a shame you don't see bowlers on commercials anymore, like the beer ads.

    I've heard that Chris Barns has done more with his winnings investment wise than any of the other PBA regulars.
    And keep in mind he stayed away from the PBA when he was younger because he felt he was making more bowling the High Roller and such events
