    Default 2018 USBC Open Championships

    Who is going to Syracuse this year?

    I am going early this year, bowling April 3&4.

    My local team bailed out this year due to various reasons. Tried getting on pro shops team, they have group of 10 teams that go and was a day late before they filled their last spot. D'Oh!

    I got lucky looking at sub boards on Facebook group and found a team out of Colorado.

    Looking forward to my 6th year at the event. Also looking forward to bowling in the side events there as well. I have been successful the last couple years at the 40 Frame Game, cashing enough to pay my expenses each year.

    so Vdub. do you fly with all of that equipment? if so it sounds pretty expensive. I wonder how it would compare if you sent them UPS.

    Airlines usually don't charge a fee for weight unless it's over 50 lbs.

    @VDub...who in Colorado did you end up bowling with? Curious if I know them out here.

    @Blacksox1...That is usually what I do (when I don't drive) to nationals, but Southwest doesn't fly into Syracuse.
