2nd Official BR Northern Illinois Get Together
« on: July 09, 2006, 03:29:49 PM »
Back by popular demand

Mark your calendar, my home center of Arlington Lanes will be hosting for what is sure to be another great event.  The staff are all fellow coworkers and friends of mine, and a vast majority of them are bowlers themselves.  I hope we can see a much larger turn out this time and get the video cameras going. Anyone and Everyone is welcome. Ask around and see if your friends are interested, the more the better!  I know some of the great guys who bowl the adult leagues will love to join us.  Lineage is expected to remain at its current rate of 2.00 a game with a buy two games get one free special.  If the amount of attendees permits we'll try to host a mock tournament, worst case scenerio will have us just bowling some pot games and goofing around  Hopefully we'll get some equipment up for raffle as a bonus.  

                      Information

Date Saturday August 12, 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
Center Arlington Lanes
Address 3435 N Kennicott Ave, Arlington Hts, IL 60004, US
Phone 847-255-6373
Website http://www.arlingtonlanes.com/
Directions http://www.mapquest.com/  


At this time i would like to stress a head count. This is vital in the planning of the event(s). I'm urging all attendees to be proactive and inform their friends and fellow league bowlers in the bowling community about our little event. It is up to you guys (the attendees) to make this happen. Each extra person that we can get is going to make the event that much better. It's time to reach out and make the 2nd BR northern Illinois get together more than the cult footnote that it is. Stand up. Reach out. Be heard. Please respond if you know any friends outside of Ballreviews that are attending with you.

Crap! Splendorlex, looks like Im gonna have to hold off buying that vapor zone back from you. I just remembered that I need at least $50 tomorrow for me and my g/f because tomorrow night I'm taking her out on a date, my idea. Thought I'd have more cash this week but figures something would get messed up. I got shorted $125 from my check this week, (my over time money). Unless you'd like to trade for a The One or V2 Sweet or both!?

See everyone there.

do you guys still want to make up a tournament.  No one can say for sure, but i'd say we're looking at about 25 people attending.  We'll have the ABT shot out on lanes 1-10 and the house shot on 11-40.  After 3pm we can break for food in our lounge.  If you want to eat afterwards you could just place your food orders in the snack shop, or we could all pool in and get a few pizzas, then we'll do the ball trading after people have eaten in the lounge.
How does that sound to everyone?

Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to make it.
G/F is out of town and I would have to drive my 99 Ram which drinks too much gas for the 400 mile round trip distance.

I'll be there but I have to leave by 3PM the latest!!

I will have the following with me to sell trade; its not alot:

15# Ebonite V2 Sweet (single drill LH) $35
15# Ebonite The One (2nd drill, 1st drill LH, 2nd drill RH) $25
15# Columbia 300 Ti Messenger (the original) (1st drill RH) $20 obo
15# Bonanza 300 (Blemished Track Freak) (2nd drill RH) $15 obo
16# Quantum Slate Blue (2nd drill RH) $20 (obo)
16# AMF Ninja Sumo (looks like the 1st drill RH) $20 (obo)

I'll trade any 2 for anything Brunswick of the newer stuff. Like Rampage, strike zone, Absolute Inferno, Scorchin Inferno, Vapor Zone, (you can have all 6 balls for a Radical Inferno) All balls listed must be 15#.

If the right offer comes up:

15# Ebonite The BIG One (single drill RH) (Note: if the offer is $65 or better..... )
