As we near the midpoint of the season, tonight we saw one bowler roll a new personal best game. (Hint, that's his steamroller.)

Lucky Harms
On November - 1 - 2022ADD COMMENTS
Though this week's bowling session fell on the Day of the Dead, several of you were dressed as if it were St. Patrick's Day for some reason. Because of this, and because Kent Harms won the trifecta this week, and only because it makes for a good pun and no other reason, Kent gets to be the headliner this week despite Carl Goetz earning this week's season's high game (241) and this week's high series (591) as the opening act.
