Your favourite PBA moment
« on: November 22, 2005, 11:24:15 AM »
I'm not sure if this has been posted before, so my appologies if it has...

What's your favourite PBA moment on TV?

For me it's a tie between Norm Duke's 300 and Bob Learn's performance at the 96 Flagship open.

Also on a side note, what's your favourite Catchphrase? (either from an announcer or from a player?)

the 1997 st. clair classic----the last telecast shown on abc-tv. it was sad to see the show leave after all those years and i really felt for bo burton and chris schenkel. however, it was great to see walter ray williams, jr., come from behind and beat pete weber in front of the hometown crowd.

Ray Bluth beating Billy G. (Golembiewski) 300 -299, in Detroit, on TV, before ABC & Chris Schenkel started broadcasting PBA tournaments. It was narrated by Fred Wolfe, in the early 1960s. It was Detroit, because Fred Wolfe was doing the play by play  and the "color" commentary, even though it was in black and white..
