And here's me thinking it's something people put on their dinner table once a year, because eating the strawberry floating thing more than once would be unbearable.

Am personally rubbish at bowling, I think I've only scored higher than 100 once. This could be down to the fact that most of my bowling takes place in a "drunken bowling" session. The funniest thing that ever happened was that once, someone dropped their lager on the wood infront of the lane but didnt tell my mate, who then attempted to do some "fancy bowling" which consisted of some dramatic, pre-bowl arm movements before stepping on the lager and ending up on his bum. I think his forearm remained heavily bruised for about 3 weeks. The best bit is that he woke up and wandered why the hell his arm was in so much pain.

I think my highest ever was like a 186 or something. But I never even get close to that now, always around 130 which is really pissing annoying.

A turkey is either slang for a stupid man, three strikes in a row, or a bird.

167 but I tend to average 110 - 120.

Dont go that often, Id like to though its always a good laugh. Highest ever was a 163, havent come close to that since then. usually I hover around the 100 mark.

I'm not really sure, probably around 80-90. I think I've only been about 5 times in my life.

165 is my best I think. Though generally I'm happy with 100+. I even own my own ball.

...

I've used it twice.

187 for me. Used to be in a league and had my own monogrammed ball and everything...these days it's probably around 140 max I'd reckon. I wasn't ever that good really to be honest.

Nice Pair!

I once went bowling after a night of clubbing, followed by drink and substance abuse then more booze, once the shops had opened. We only went because my friend suggested it had a bar. Seemed like a good idea at the time. The staff shut off the lights in an effort to stop us, it only made it worse. Sometime after what for normal people is lunch time the speed wore off.

I think I may have hit some pins but I doubt they were in our lane.

So I will say I scored 12.5

Don't know how I've managed to miss this thread.

High score of 276, 10 bagger (ten strikes in a row), opened with a spare and ended with a nine I think. Been in a league of some kind since I was about 7. My average is about 170

Trophies I've won during my 4 years at uni.
In my second year I finished joint 10th in the country for students. Won the uni's internal league every year it ran. And I have just as many trophies from my younger years. I've got 4 balls (ooo get me!) my own shoes, two bowling towels and a wrist support (no jokes please).

What do I win?

163 I think

PostRe: 10 Pin Bowling by **A.I.** » Fri Aug 29, 2008 4:41 pm

I got 227 once: 8-)

Haven't got near it since...I usually get around 130-160, which ain't bad.
