Whats the funniest excuse for bowling bad?
« on: March 01, 2007, 03:43:04 AM »
The reason I posted this is because we all know that guy that complains about everything, just wondering what the funniest you've ever heard?

EXAMPLE: we had this guy we subed with for a year and he averaged like 145, everytime he threw a bad ball he would look at the bottom of his slide foot, so we asked "whats wrong you stickin?" he said "No the approaches are really dusty" and I understand sometimes they are dirty but he said this like 10x a night and only avg.145 I've heard of alot of things but dusty approaches is a good one!

Blaming the twenty something woman next to you for breaking your concentration with her barely there halter top and way too short shorts. Either because she has the body to wear these or she doesn't have the body to wear these.

Hey this happens! I was bowling across from this fine blonde and she wore these blue suede pants. Well everytime she bowled she stopped suddenly at the foul line and her butt would kind of jiggle like jello. It was freakin sweet! I of course shot like crap and this one guy I was bowling with had 7 straight gutter balls.

One older guy in our league:

"these floors (lanes) are too dirty."
" those pros don't use oil on there floors (lanes)"

trust me, he's full of good ones!

  A few years ago I bowled in a mixed league of, well, let's say most of the members' elevators didnt reach the top floor. One night I was throwing relatively well, and one of the opposing guys kept missing his spares. After missing his 3rd 10 pin he came up and said: "I wish they would put the same kind of lanes in here as they have at the other house. These are too long!!"

My friend is bowling against this hot number tonight. He's thinking about taking a blind because he already knows that he won't be able to concentrate. He figures that he won't even beat his blind score.

Happened to me while practicing for a tournament the night before.  My buddies and I were at the lanes (Friday night) and they put us on a lane next to a very well endowed young lady.  We happened to reach for our balls at the same time and I got an eyeful.  The ball was in the gutter before it reached the arrows.

Everyone uses an excuse sometime.  I usually just say "I bowl like chit" and leave it at that.  The fine looking girl will always get you.  Can't help but look.  Usually gets me in trouble though since my wife bowls also.

My favorite comes from the guy who averages 152, stands in the left gutter (righty), chucks a plastic ball 20+ mph at the head pin, leaves countless 5-7-9's and complains that there is too much wax on the left side.
