The picture reminds me of our bowling team that competed in the commercial banking league. We were all amateurs and I was appointed team captain... my job was to handle funding, wahuhuhu. Although we didn't get a good placing in the final round but we truly enjoyed the nightly games against other banks.
My best game was a score of 170.

Whether you are good or not, bowling is such a fun game and a great way to spend time with friends or co-workers. I used to bowl in a league as well, although I wasn't good either. My highest score was a 204.

That 204 is already a semi-pro level. Some of my teammates achieve that score and sometimes even higher.

@moffittjc that 170 range is already respectable. In our tournament the average score of good players is around 170 only. And that happens to be my highest game, waheehee.

@Alexandoy But I only surpassed a 200 score once in my life. I got lucky. Otherwise, I usually bowl in the 170-180 range.

@nawala123 for me, it is more for the enjoyment of the game and not for winning.

I only played bowling once, though it was my first time I did well! At least you had fun Alex!

For me, it's not the score that matters but the fun with the camaraderie. I miss those kind of games.

@DianneN golf is one sport that I dreamed to play. But it never happened.

Bowling is fun when you play with friends especially if there is a small bet like a sandwich.
