Bowling Can Be Fun If Done Correctly
A friend of mine who made a lot of money in the market and in an electronics business he had, invited me over once in a while just to hang out. I always enjoyed this, because he had quite a pad, with a basement that was nothing but a total game room. He had everything you could think of, from four bowling lanes, to pool tables and dart boards. And A full bar.
When I was in school, my dad was in construction, so that was the way I went as well. I was not as well off as my friend, but I was happy with where I was. The reason for this get together, was to compete in our own private bowling tournament. It was two out of three games, winner getting twenty bucks and the honorary title of champion at that particular alley.
He flipped all the necessary switches to give power to the alley. We went to the ball rack and picked the one we wanted. We even donned the old bowling shoes, he had every size you could need, because he often through big parties and they would inevitably end up in the game room. It had a full bar as well. On my second roll my ball took an unnatural skip. It was very slight, but still noticeable. I politely said excuse me, and strolled out to my car.
I reappeared a few moments later with my dyson vacuum dc17, plugged it, and ran it all over my bowling lane. My friend laughed at my antics. He always got a big kick out of me. I explained how the dust from his laziness and the lanes not getting cleaned had caused my balls to miss their target. He was very amused but still confident in his successful outcome.
Another few frames later, I was beginning to fall farther behind. Then I remembered that I was trying to do this without the one thing all competitors must have, my good luck charm. Again I was strolling to my car, and when I got back, I had on my black helmet that I wore when I rode my motorcycle. Since buying this helmet, I had won five races in a row. He still was not impressed, but had a good laugh.
Some more frames were unforgiving, as I saw myself being smeared beyond recovery. It was then that I noticed my shoes were really slippery. Out to the car I went. I came back in, sporting my new brown boots that I had bought to deer hunt in. My friend thought I looked ridiculous and had to get a picture before we resumed.
The good thing about all of that, is that from that frame on I took command of the game. And upon leaving that night, I had twenty dollars to put into the gas tank of my truck, and an honorary title as the reigning champion of that alley. I explained to my friend that if he wanted to beat me, he should take me on at a regular bowling alley where you can not so easily thwart the rules. We are set for a re-match in two weeks.
