Reply With QuoteI don't smoke but my g/f and friends smoke. I know its prolly easier when they could smoke inside, instead now they gotta take shoes off and go outside which takes time away from game and all.

Now if they banned me having a beer or two while I'm bowling, well then we're gonna have a problem....

I went for a smoke between games tonight. I still bowled leadoff before their second person went yet their captain complained that they had to wait too long but it was ok when he went for beer and took ten minutes. What's the difference?
"..............instead now they gotta take shoes off and go outside which takes time away from game and all."
All they have to do is put on those shoe covers that most people wear when walking around.
Was your team winning? That might have been the "difference".
3 out of 4 of us struck out in the tenth to win by 6 pins. This dude was yelling and screaming so bad that another team went and got my dad (league president) to tell him to chill. That guy started yelling and cussing at my dad so I thought for sure there was going to be a quick fight. Surprisingly, to me anyway, dad just said, keep it up; hit another monitor or ball return and you won't bowl in this association again. You're sportmanship doesn't meet the standards expected of any league and can no longer be tolerated.Was your team winning? That might have been the "difference".
The guy shut up and didn't hit squat again. Then about ten minutes later he started talking crap about my dad. I politely asked him why he was talking trash now instead of when he was over here. Go say it to his face. He didn't but in the end that was probably a good thing. My dad likes to say he's a fat, old, disable man so what's he suppose to do? Still, I know he was a green beret and even taught the special forces hand to hand combat class for three months so I'm sure it would all still just click. Besides, he is only 44, wears a size 34" waist pants and his disability is 10% on his right knee. It's part of his warped sense of humor. Like when I asked about his Purple Hearts. He said he was awarded for not moving out of the way of the bullets fast enough. If the local paper hadn't run an article on the area vets for Veteran's Day a few years back I wouldn't have known half of what he did in the Army.

Ah, so basically this guy was just a jerkwad then. It's always nice to beat the loudmouthed jerks, so good for you and good for your dad for keeping his cool.
Everytime he bowls people complain about this guy's behavior. He usually screams at his wife and calls her names but that was stopped last year. Earlier this month he shot a 121 and was yelling at his team for them not hitting the pocket or head pin. How can anyone compalin like that when they can't do it either?
Well, I'm a firm believer in Karma so I'm sure this guy will get what's coming to him someday. It's nice to be a fly on the wall when Karma catches up to people like this guy.
