For the sake of morale, we went bowling today at work. There were prizes awarded for the top three team averages, based on your best two games. There were some fairly good bowlers but since teams were random, they were spread out fairly well. How did we do? I’m happy to report that our team came in second overall, thanks somewhat to me. I averaged 159 over 3 games with scores of 122, 216 and 139. That makes my two game average 178, which isn’t too shabby if I may say so myself.
I’m not a very consistent bowler and I never have been. For the last few years my average has been ~145 but my second game is usually in the 170 range with the other two ranging from 120 to 140. It seems to take me awhile to warm up and am generally spent by the third game. Today doesn’t really seem to be any different, although 216 is my highest score ever. Need proof I did it? Here you go… note the misspelling. It would have been nice not to open the bonus in the 10th frame because it was my only one but that’s the best place to have one so I can’t be too bitter.
You bowled well that game, and that digital picture frame that I won is pretty sweet!
I wouldn’t have been sad with that prize. I guess I can’t fault them for skipping high games on winning teams but they still should have announced my 216!
