Extreme Sports vs Wonderaz

Yes, you may now call me Extreme Wonder. I have faced off against one of the most fearsome of extreme sports in America although not unscathed.
Big and Little Al dragged me off this afternoon to that arena of doom, the *shudder* Bowling Alley.
I have not entered one of these places in 15 years at least. We went to the local Indian casino were they recently built a 30 lane bowling alley with money they did NOT win from me.
Six games may have been too many though, as I am seriously injured, possibly for life.
One badly sprained ankle and two dislocated thumbs and a very sore shoulder, mainly because I have this propensity for firing a bowling ball that occasionally breaks the sound barrier.
Watching an immigrant trying to bowl for the first time is hilarious. Occasionally, the hangtime rivaled the NFL.
One thing that was cool was how state of the art they are now, you don't have to do shit but bowl, everything is computerized.
I could do that again.

Damn straight, I drift to the far side, release right at the edge of the gutter and just catch the outside of the first arrow. The ball is released about a foot off the lane and doesn't touch down for ten feet, easy. Wicked back spin too. Too fast for any curl, I count on the pins exploding.

bowling , bahh try kegeln
if you go kegeln you most of the time go to a stinking dusty celar where you have 4 at most 6 lanes. the kegelball has no wholes and is smaller than a bowlingball. you have pins too but only 8 of them. if you suck the ball gets of the lane and everyone has to shout "PUDEL" which is a breed of dogs infact so please dont ask me why everyone shouts PUDEL. the aim of the game is to drink as much beer as possible. to be a real winner you have to be wonderazs age , completly drunk and die of a heartattack while lifting the kegelball. HEROIC
i wont go into details now but there are things called chrtistmastreekegel and one time per year the whole kegelclub has to make a bustrip to a crappy touristtrap somewhere south wearing joggingsuits with the clublogo , 60ties sportshoes and funny hats.
IT IS A SPORT FOR REAL MEN !!!

I was in the bowling league last year. I finally got my friends to join with me. Every day after school we would go and bowl 3 or 4 games. If you were in the league for more than a few weeks you got your card which made each game only a dollar. We bowled every day after school, and on sunday it was league so we bowled then too. On saturday it was 20 dollars for 1 lane from 9-12 am, we went every single saturday and played so many games. I think my average was around 160 or 170. When we first started, strikes and spares were so great, but after we were there for a while anything that wasnt a strike or a spare would suck, hehe. I have really been wishing I could bowl lately but because of my back I can't.
Even if my back gets better I am going to need to buy a new ball because my old one is all chipped from jumping on the trampoline with it. Oh well. When the vegas thing happens, everybody should go bowling, you could rent a few lanes across. That would be one of the events that even the minors could do, so it would be fun.
