What
is the dumbest question asked in bowling?
The answer….at the end of the column.
Triple
X Pro Shop is currently leading in an ongoing tournament at Bulans Bowl with a 3250.
Another week remains in the team event on Sunday with squads at 10am and again
at 1pm. You can contact Doug Oakes, the tournament director at 217-304-4735.
The next two weekends are for doubles
and singles, and reservations are now being taken.
Top
honors this week go to Brandon Hamilton from Hoopeston and the Fast Lanes
Center. Hamilton rolled a 300 game as well as an 804 series. He was heard to
say “it’s bad when I have more 800 scores than 300 games.” If you want to know the truth, I will take
either one. Other high rollers from the
Hoopeston area include Porgy Anderson, a 299, Chad Bruens with a 297, and
Marvin Dobkins with a 290 game. The ladies did great as well, as Jennifer Crawley
rolled both a 268 and a 265 for a 674 series, alas, only to be outdone by Karen
Porth’s 685 series which included a 268 game.
Robbie Ketcherside had a 678 series for
the Monday Nite No Tap League at Lincoln Lanes, while U Pete Wiliams had a 257,
77 pins over average. Nancy Goodner topped at 214, 52 over her 214 normal, and

In the MS Nail Salon League, Sharon Craft
rolled a 202, and Donna Reyhel was right behind her with a 201. Cheryl Callison
rolled a 209 and a 516 series, while Dorthy Hesler topped out at aq 207 with a 545
series. Sue Strong rolled a 575 series which included a 204 game.

The Friday Nite Evening League at
Sycamore Lanes has Dale Benedict rolling a 235, which was 58 pins over his 177

questions on bowling, it’s rules and such. Just drop us an e-mail.
Oh, at the
beginning of the column, we asked what the most stupid question in bowling was.
Let’s see if we agree. My answer would be “are you going to take that?” Of course you’re going to take that.
Thanks again to the folks who report the
scores. Your help is greatly appreciated.

more info, drop me a note at illianabowling@gmail.com. Check
