Bowlero buys PBA

Is this a joke? If not, I did NOT see this coming.... What's next, the Cosmic Bowling Open?

Interesting. Not necessarily bad, but we'll have to see how things play out.

It's better than the asshats from Microsoft owning it.

First order of business should be shit-can Tom Clark. But they probably won't...at least not right away.

Cosmic Bowling Open  ;D , One thing have to give Bowlero is they have already offered the biggest prize in bowling history.  Was funky seeing even the pro losing his crap because the pay day was so large.  Was like OMG its finally possible to make a living as a professional bowler only.
Here today.  Gone tomorrow.

The same company that asked why anyone would take league bowling serious buys the PBA. I'm supposed to get excited about this. NO.

Furthermore, they need to get rid of that goofball Tom Clark.

Bowlero can hold the PBA tournament right next to the the 5 year old's birthday party just like they do to bowling leagues (if the center is allowed to have bowling leagues).
Balls: Motiv Trident Abyss, Motiv Golden Jackal, Motiv Hydra and Motiv Hyper Sniper. All made in the USA.

And as someone said on another forum if we are tied after the roll-off we go to sudden death in the laser tag arena.

Maybe we'll see a Skee Ball championship instead of the Plastic Ball championship.
