I really didn't like the event, or the format. What I am hoping though, is this. Some people who wouldn't have watched it otherwise, saw it and decided that bowling looks like fun.
I hope that people who otherwise would've never set foot in a center, now will go out and try it for themselves. I hope that some of those really have fun and decide to come back again. And I hope some of those find that it can be a serious sport and fill their need for a competitive venue.
Yes, it had its negatives, i.e. examples of how the NBA players had fun but really didn't take it to serious from the abilities standpoint, juxtaposed against the serious skills and abilities of the PBA guys.
I think the main thing here was to show bowling in a positive light. To show the lighter, funner, more recreational side of it in an effort to get more casual participants back into the game. If it is successful, and some portion of those newer participants decide to stay, it has had a ver good, positive effect overall.
