Gotta Love Bowling!

**Halon** · 05-22-2004

Well just got back from a night of drunken bowling. Bowled the best game of my damn life. Ended up with a 266. I fucked it up in the 10th frame. Here's some pics of my kick ass game, frames 1-9 nuthin but strikes, but in the 10th i gotta 8 then a 1. oh well, still the best game of my life. "HW" is me (home wrecker).

And this is our bowling lane bar tenders who have always treated us so well!!!! They are sad that it's my last night there

Ya i know they are thick, but big women need love too. I don't discriminate!!!!!

I'd show a pic of my final score but i left it in the truck. My old best was a 190 or sumthin like that. I've never broken 200 in my life. I thought I was gunna bowl a 300. I was so bummed when i got an 8 and a 1 in that 10th frame. But hey, I'm still damn proud!!! and drunk as shittt! and we went to the titty bar afterwards and i saw boobies... woohooO!!!!

So you are one of those people who do actually get better at games when you are drunk. I always think I do, but really am alot worse.

I know that bowling is a quirky game, anything can happen, but you didn't show the final score, so I gotta do this. :bs: It's just like saying your car has this much power or went this fast at the track without a dyno graph or a timeslip. Sorry, dude...

I've bowled for 10 years, high game is 289, I've thrown 11 in a row twice (Yes, I fucked up the first frame and finished with 11 strikes), and my high series is over 700. (I can't remember, it was a few years ago.)

I always do a little better at most games when I get a little aiming fluid in me.

i don't know what a series is. I haven't bowled for 10 years. We aren't hard core bowlers. When we get stuck in Yuma for a weekend, there is nothing to do here, so it usually ends up being a fun filled night at AMF Lanes. Call BS, fine with me, because I actually went up to some random persons lane and took pictures of their game.. :stick: ...And I didn't take pics of the final score because I had the guy at the desk print me out the score sheet thing. I forgot to grab it last night. It's sittin in my buddies truck but he's at work. Once he gets back ill throw up a pic of the sheet to help ease your mind chum. No I am not better when I get drunk. See this was the very first game of the night, by the end of the game I had only had about half a long island. My scores got worse and worse the entire night as i had more long islands

Double post...

Brandon, good job. A few years ago when there was a rash of perfect series (three 300 games in a row) being thrown across the US, a black guy in Milwaukee left a 10-pin on the very last ball. What the big deal about it was is he had the most unorthodox bowling technique anyone had ever seen (weird backswing and slid on the wrong foot), including the bowling magazine that featured him and his 899 series. It's proof that anything can happen.

Honestly, bowling is a mental game... Most opinions say it requires only 10% skill and 90% mental focus. Training your muscles to do the same thing over and over is what you're taught when bowling competitively, and it's up to your mind to make your muscles do that. Unfortunately they never factor in luck... On certain conditions missing your mark by a half inch or rolling the ball only .5 MPH too fast or slow could make you miss the pocket.

I've only bowled once in the past year, and it wasn't pretty that last time. Now that I live basically down the street from some lanes I hope to get back into the swing of things, and would enjoy showing you how things are really done.

i've been bowling for about 1 year now, and that's like maybe twice a month. We went out again today cuz we were bored. I don't think i made it over 150 all night. oh well, yesterday was my lucky day! And ya I know when I come home me and my friends will prolly do some drunken bowling a couple nights. Here they have on Fridays/Saturdays/Sundays its called extreme bowling. They shut off most the lights and blare music and flip on the black lights. It's kinda cool, about the coolest thing to do in this city. And all the 15 year olds come out... OH YA. But if you wanna hit up some drunken late night bowling with us, then BRING IT! haha, hopefully i'll have another lucky night.
