I once new a guy who bought a Aftermath Pearl

So he decided to give it a whirl

It hit with such thunder

He knew it was not a blunder

He just bought the best ball in the world.

Waves rippling sends pins flipping.
Power that is way too crippling.
   Wood is split
   As balls hit.
Seismic balls make your score card tripling.

The pins crouched in fear, how they cowered,

 as the bowler approached them he glowered

 The challenge he met

 and he won the bet

 because he was Seismically powered.

This guy was not lying

The pins he hit were flying

It was no crap

He couldn''t get tapped

That Seismic ball I''''m buying.

This guy was not lying

The pins he hit were Flying

It was no crap

Seismic left the pins a crying.

Awesome idea! I love limericks. Never much good at composing, but here''s my attempt:

The handsome and bold Desperado
Made control his striking new motto
On the lanes, unsurpassed
But in bed, still can''t last
When thinking of Nelly Furtado

There's balls that make pins tremble

Smash through deck and crash like a cymbal

The competitors shall fear

When I pull out my gear

And they see the Seismic symbol

Mine is going to be longer, cuz I enjoy this

T'was the night before Christmas
and Santa was perplexed,
See, Timmy wanted a great bowling ball,
One better than the rest.

Santa he searched, online and in stores,
He snuck in the pro shop, while the owner he snored.
Santa flipped through the logs, and looked on the shelves,
He decided to drill up a Black Out using the PAP of one of his elves.

3 3/8", with the pin under ring
The pins they went soaring
Santa was shocked, he'd never seen such a thing.
12 strikes in row later, the elf, shouted with glee,
Bring Timmy a Seismic, but keep this one for me!

 Merry Christmas All!

A bowler who lived in Nantucket

 was constantly leaving the bucket

 but the fix came on quick

 when he bought a Seismic

 cause THOSE balls can hit like trucks hit.

Going to the alley tonight to play a little trick.
Take other bowler's money and make them feel sick.
I don't know how these balls fit in this sack.
Other equipment fears when I put them on the rack.
Yeah. My balls are Seismic
--------------------
I'm in the process of trying to find out where I fit in the bowling world. I do not know my tech specs of my game, but it's all a learning process.

Bowl the ball forward, not back
Someone's lane you might crack
The ball's in the gutter
Oh the way people will stutter
Hoping you have Seismic's new tic-tac

Kicked out of their homes once more
For they told their wives the score
Yet they tried to explain
That their balls were too plain
That Aftermath had made them all poor

There's a ball in my sack that's all black

I pull it out with the Lane 1 piece that's cracked

Put the bomb on the rack...

Pick up that black

My static weights on my black are correct for a smack

There once was a Troll on this forum,
Who said all these balls bored him.

Ryan suggested an Solaris,
Dave suggested Requim.

So he went out and bought a Blackout,
since then nobody saw him.

OK- here goes:

There once was a bowler from Colorado,
Who found a great ball called The Desperado.
His lanes were so wet,
But he did not fret
Cuz the ball really showed it's bravado.

Can't afford to buy another ball

Should I win this, Seismic gets the call

Doesn't matter what I throw

High performance or low

Having issues, even on the "Great Wall"

In the Aftermath of a great night
Two bowlers got into a fight
A ball, orange and yellow
"Shows no class, my young fellow"
For the ball hurt my eyes it''s so bright

Or a different ending:

In the Aftermath of a great night
Two bowlers got into a fight
A ball, orange and yellow
"Shows no class, my young fellow"
So he ordered another in spite

Don't know much 'bout Seismic it's true

But I'd just love to try something new

Now, their balls look real neat

Cores and covers so sweet

All the others out there just won't do.

There once was a League Bowler from Nantucket

Who was oft teased because his lame ball left the bucket

He gave a Seismic ball a try

And his scores went sky high

Then he told the teasers to "Suck It!"

In the Aftermath of a blizzard in Colorado

Begins this Requiem of a well known Desperado

Through the Epicenter of the snow

In a Blackout search lights glow

For a crapper that’s not ocupado

Post by: Keith Frye on December 21, 2010, 01:38:38 PM
Like the Requiem of a funeral choir

Was heard the voice of a Desperado so dire

Blackout on lane 29 was the call

Because it’s the Seismic ball

That has my opponents calling me Sire!

There was a house hack from Nantucket
He took his ball to the lanes and did chuck it
Though his style was not grand
With a Seismic in hand
His pockets filled with bracket duckets

Post by: BWDavy on December 22, 2010, 04:37:01 AM
There was a bowler from downunder in Australia,
Who in league was never a failure,
His ball of orange and gold
Carried hard and left no corners cold,
And the scouts were all sent by air mail, Errr

Yes, I know the last line is lame

A ball with such power and might
It sent the pins into a fright
The ball was let go
It kept the pins low
This seismic is pure dynamite

He plays with his balls in the pocket
He said u ain't tried it don't knock it
He stroked it out right
It was a good night
With seismic these lanes just can't stop it

 an 800 was almost un-lawful

 but it came and came quick

 cause he threw a Seismic

 now his wallet and pockets are all full.

The Desperado is so smooth yet so strong,

You can absolutely never go wrong.

It's even better today.

I should have been using this one all along.

The bowlers heard sounds like loud thunder

 "Were there storms rolling in" they did wonder

 then they saw the pins fall

 and his new Seismic ball

 and they knew that their pockets he'd plunder.

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the lanes,
Not a good ball was striking accept a bright red Requime.
When down at the end lane arose such a matter,
A young man with an Aftermath was watching the pins shatter.
He walked out of the lanes with so much delight,
He said,"If you haven't tried Seismic your heads not on tight!"

There once was a house hack in Nantucket
who left ten pin after ten pins and bucket
after throwing his seismic

and without knowing i think i copied someone else''s

This is not a gimmick
Because it's called Seismic
If you'd never tried or heard of it
You should see when it hits the pins like a brick.

From the bowling balls' mighty hook

Were my eyes playing tricks
Oh! It was the SEISMIC.
