I seen a guy bounce his ball off the seating area floor like baskeball for missing a spare. Me i perfer just to not beat up the furniture at bowling alley for my mistakes LOL i just go out take breather and forget about it.

its funny but a guy kicked one of the ball returns sunday. i never noticed anyone doing this till i read it here in this post. kind of funny but i see things more now that i've read about it here.

I remember one time in high school, I was bowling at a local alley that was in really bad condition. Old, worn out, dry-as-a-bone wooden lanes, manual scoring with overhead projectors that didn't all work, etc. It's no wonder this place is closed.

Anyway, I was bowling, and I released the ball, and it dropped right into the left hand gutter (I'm lefty). It pops out, rolls across the lane, and into the right hand gutter. Then, it pops out of that gutter, and into the left hand gutter of the lane next to me. Pops out of that one, rolls across that lane, and ends up in the right hand gutter of that lane. Not only did I put the ball in the gutter, but did it 4 times on a single throw!!

Must've been a center w/ shallow gutters, Tuba.

right after i got my dimension drilled, one of my teammates, who i've been bowling with since about '98, decided that he would throw a couple of my old bowling balls because i wanted to clear space in my room. well, the first shot he threw ever with my Track mean machine, it rolled about 15 feet then into the gutter. almost immediately, the ball jumped out of the gutter and back onto the lane at just the precise angle so that when it made it to the pin deck, it was dead flush in the 1-3, and he ended up with a strike.

figured i'd take the topic full-circle, since i believe a similar story was the start of this topic.
