AMF Bowling plans merger with New York-based company
The News & Advance (VA)
"Under a plan submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Richmond, Hanover County-based AMF Bowling would combine with Bowlmor, which operates six bowling and entertainment venues in New York, Florida, Maryland and California. If the merger wins approval by creditors and a federal bankruptcy judge, Bowlmor’s chief executive officer, Tom Shannon, would serve as the chairman, president and CEO of the combined company, to be named Bowlmor AMF."
It doesn’t get more bizarre than this bowling shot
Fred Eisenhammer
Examiner (CA)

“It was the strike that wasn’t – a bizarre bowling shot that required a ruling by the league president. A day later, the United States Bowling Congress weighed in."
900s becoming common; bowling getting too easy
Lee Owen
Daily Advance (NC)
“ While I said that this was a nearly impossible feat, we should keep in mind that until 1997, this appeared to actually be impossible, with no one ever rolling one in the history of bowling. Since 1997, however, there have been 23 of these series bowled, two by the same person, two months apart, and he was a youth bowler. Also, in the history of the PBA, there have only been 22 televised perfect games, with three-fourths of them coming since the mid 90s and a third coming in the last 10 years."

North Carolina man rolls first PBA 900 series
Associated Press

“A North Carolina man has rolled the first 900 series in Professional Bowlers Association history - three straight perfect games. Joe Scarborough, a 50-year-old self-employed electrical contractor from Charlotte, opened the first round of qualifying in the PBA50 Sun Bowl on yesterday with three games of 300, throwing 36 consecutive strikes."

Calera's Angela Nance avoids 'getting hung,' sets women's state bowling series record
Solomon Crenshaw
Birmingham News

"You can't be tense and nervous or you can't repeat the same shot over and over," she said. "I had to remind myself to take a deep breath, just do the one ball at a time. I had a great team that was there to support me. We talked about other things to try not to focus on that the whole night long until that was over."

Hoover's Paul Ealy sets state bowling series record of 896 at Birmingham's Brunswick Riverview Lanes
Solomon Crenshaw Jr
Birmingham News

"But the one that got away may have helped him bag the big one - the state-record 896 series he rolled Monday in the Bud Light Classic league at Brunswick Riverview Lanes."
Paul Ealy has competed in four PBA Tour events, including the two held at Birmingham's Lightning Strikes Lanes. He has no plans of becoming a touring professional.

Mobile to host 2021 national women's bowling championships
Mark Inabinett
Alabama Live
“The U.S. Bowling Congress has awarded the 2021 national women's bowling championships to Mobile, the USBC, the Mobile Sports Authority and the Mobile Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau announced today.”
Brunswick buys Ace Bowling Center in east Montgomery
Brad Harper

Gadsden Times
