I was basically only three pins away from a perfect game of bowling tonight in league. I bowled my highest game ever tonight… a 277. If you want to see how that looks on the scoring sheet, here it is:
That spare in the 6th frame should’ve been a strike. I buried it in the pocket, but the 8-pin stood there mocking me. And the last frame was simply nerves. I knew I had a good game going, potentially my best ever, and it made me nervous enough to miss my mark by two boards. So if I would’ve made a strike in the 6th frame, I would’ve made a 298. And obviously if I would’ve struck out in the tenth, then I would’ve had a perfect game. Not only would I have won a gold ring and stuff from the ABC (American Bowling Congress), but the bowling alley would’ve paid me $1000! That wouldve been the better reward, especially since I need all the money I can get.
