Pro Shop in Willowbrook, IL
« on: December 08, 2004, 04:54:16 PM »
This is a warning to all the customers in the Chicagoland area , about a pro shop or shall i say a dump. Im talking about Pro Bowling Company. Its been a while since i had been in there, to top it off it took me a while to find them since they moved and had no signs at the old store saying where they had moved to. So after finding the place, I walk in and im promptly greeted not by a employee but by a dog that is trying to bite my leg off. Then I come to find out that the only reason why i was going to that dump is gone, my ball driller. So if anyone knows where Paul Colombani has gone to, or if he is still drilling that would be greatly appreciated. Back to the dump, this place was a bigger mess then the other store. It came as no surprise to me that owner was sitting in front of a computer screen, I don't think that i have ever seen him help someone when i was in there. Then this new guy working there really seemed to have an attitude problem, like it was a hassle for him to be there or for him to help me. So after i bought my cleaner i left and will never return to that place again and advise anyone else not to go there either. So i begin my quest of finding a ball driller, hopefully my old one.

Paul has posted on here about his pro shop but I couldn't find it using the search.  contact user Angstfilled, he knows paul and can probably tell you how to get in touch with him.

Jeremy,

I found the Prototype "angstfilled" Bronze Figure Piece.  It can be found at the following location
