Hey dude, I thought you've bowled this tourney already? Hehe.
You'll think it's fun. Very well run tournament by the Fanucci (sp) family and the Tom Crane at Granada.

I live five minutes away from Granada Bowl, so yeah, I do bowl the LVT a bit.

That would be cool if we could all get together and bowl
this tournament together one day.

We could all match up singles and Doubles and just roll.

That would be fun. it would be a big BR hang out. Then

go grab a meal at Cattlemens afterwards, ahahah!

Regarding traffic, finding my way out of the house is usually the toughest part.  

Nothing is cast in concrete yet...I'm having a terrible time nailing people down on when they want to bowl...

I'd be down for that...assuming, of course, we have an easier time picking a weekend of LVT than we do trying to schedule an East Bay get-together.

I bowled it last year.  I'll probably bowl again this year.

i will hope to bowl well during the team event on saturday, 11/26 at 6pm.  i heard that the center went to a short oil shot this year during league.  i wonder if this will be true during the tournament as well.  if this is the case, better bring that shiny stuff.

News to me, but knowing the surface at Granada, you're *always* well-advised to bring shiny stuff.

AHHA! Thanks Jim. Short oil shot geez.

Well in that house in the past from bowling 7 to the gutter has always been OB.
7 to 15 hooked. 15 to 15 was always a puddle. So everyone usually palys in the iddle and swings it out a little then to the pocket. It becomes a funnel in a way especially for the high rev rate players. plus the heads are worn and you can see it the ball burn up and change direction early especially on the second squad of doubles.

Let's see if we can get some BR teams together. If no one wants to bowl teams let's do doubles.

Cost is $20 bucks an event. But remember if you bowl doubles you got to bowl singles. There is no going around that.
