Thursday night (Quarter night) we have the black lights and music going. These types of pictures are generally a nuisance to take due to the black lights and fast motion of the bowlers. I guess this is why you don't see many pictures of this sort. Or maybe because nobody cares about blacklight bowling. LOL!

Things were a bit slow this past Thursday, so I did some test pictures. They came out decently well.

You will find some random shots. Some girls wanted their picture on the internet. And Ray Feliciano would also like you to see him bowling. I'll also toss up a video or two in this folder. If you see it, hit the + sign. Then click the download link. This will be a movie of Ray showing you his uber bowling skills in the dark. Or you might be able to view it just by clicking on the file name. This all depends on your web browser and how you have it set up. Some day I'll set it up like YouTube.

Also, I might make this a normal routine. People bowling in the dark on Thursdays. We will see.

This Saturday is the bowler of the year tourney. Starting at 6:30. So stop on by and see how this seasons 'big shots' make out. The top 8 men and 8 women will be there. I will have the results of the tourney on Sunday or Monday and will post them here in the blog.

The 2nd week the guys finally got warmed up in the Tuesday Match Point league. I expect this should be another high scoring season as the shot is the same as it was last summer, and all the summers before that. Here are the first scores of the summer.

Emil 817 Tuesday Match Point

Rick Prouflis 300 Tuesday Match Point

Ladies High Average - Sandy Davis - 216.7 in the Tuesday Petersen Point League.

Also, the bowler of the year tourney is June 12th. ]]> General http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=51 Thu, 27 May 2010 14:43:40 -0500 http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=50
The summer Tuesday 4 Man Classic starts tomorrow (the 25th). They tell me that there is somewhere between 14 and 20 teams. But the very last I heard there will be 18. That is how many teams there was last summer. This league produced 14 300's last season and 6 800+ series. Look for more of the same this summer.

Thursday Night Doubles: This league should be bigger than last year. Jim White tells me there are 23 teams so far! Look for this league to pump out some good scores also.

Beat The House: Fail. Miserably I might add. Had a total of 6 people sign up for it. This is somewhat depressing. Maybe there were no sign ups because of the 9PM starting time. I would have expected this to be at least 8 teams. I mean, who wouldn't want to join a league and take a chance on not having to pay for bowling? Maybe the economy is in better shape than the media would like you to believe.

NO TAP League on Thursdays. This night league seems to always be a big hit. And it looks like there will be more teams than last year.

Look for the summer leagues to be posted on the web site starting around the 2nd week of June.

But before that, last Thursday night Ward Wallace shot his first 300 game ever in the Thursday Night Extras league!

The 300 guys!

Angel Charlie Team

Team 3062 - County Record!]]> General http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=49 Mon, 10 May 2010 09:00:14 -0500 http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=48
In case you missed it, and for our international fans, here is what went on this past Wednesday night in the Petersen Industrial League.

Jim Rogers - Had his first 300 of the season in this league.

Tony Buczynski - Also had his first 300 in the Industrial league this year.

Casey Cruetz - Again, his first 300 in the league this year followed up with an 820 series!

Jim Hanlon - His first 300 of the season in this house. Whoa!

Jim Rogers and Tony Buczynski, by the way, are on the same team.

Speaking of the team, they inform me the following screen his the 5th high sanctioned game in the world.

George Williams - Gerald Cantalupo - Tony Buczynski and Jim Rogers.

Angel Charlie 1162

And then we have this. Another county record falls. I will dig up the original recaps later on in the week. This will be on the overhead screens.

Another New County Record!

We have never dished out 5 rings in one night! Four 300's and an 800. Another house record!]]> General http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=48 Sat, 1 May 2010 01:28:58 -0500 http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=47

Deformed Pin

And while bored and not doing much, I goofed around and made this.

BEAT THE HOUSE LEAGUE IS COMING!]]> General http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=46 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 02:21:32 -0500 http://www.playdromelanes.com/blog/index.php?itemid=45 In case you didn't know, every lane machine has two tanks in it. One to hold the oil. The other to hold the cleaner. You might not know that the machine will clean and oil at the same time, although it doesn't have to. We normally have the machine do both at the same time. Well, sooner or later someone is going to mess up. And they will put the wrong 'stuff' in the wrong tank. This time someone put cleaner in the oil tank. Yipes! I have seen this happen more than a few times. And its not a pretty sight. The oil and cleaner have a closed system. Kind of like the oil pump in your car. Imaging putting anti freeze in where your oil goes. Yep. That's trouble! So what you get is a white milky solution that will clog anything, including the tubing and filters. While this sounds like a big deal to fix, its really not. Just takes some time and patience. Its mostly all fixed now. I just need to get some new tubing. What we have is a bit old. So new stuff is on the way. And what would a blog be without a picture explaining what I just said? A big fat bore. LOL!

Clogged Filter and Milky Junk

That's all for now. I'll dig up the honor scores on Thursday night.
