Pool Boy, I guess you just went home after your game. You missed out on what was a historic night for the Norris 6. The group was not large being only the hookers, namely Redline and D-Bo as Team “Red Bow” like a Christmas doggie and Lunch Money and Tortass (I believe the spelling was) as Team “Money Ass”, like as in, “That was some ‘money ass’ bowling right there”.
The first game started off a little slow, much like the NCAA championship, with the scores starting slow for Red, D, and Lunch and the trademark Tortoise Speed Deadliness taking full effect and going 9 frames to start closed down and a strike to start the 10th, but unable to close the spare.
The second game was fairly unremarkable, like Kansas’ early second half, with the exception of the young lady down the lane from us who bowled a ball to make the Blue Tortoise jealous and therefore proving that the bowling lane does tilt at some degree toward the pins and also a back-up screwball thrown by Lunch Money that had to be seen to be believed.
In the third game however the gauntlet was to be thrown down like a Chalmers 3 pointer from the top of the key. Records were set and confusion was amok. All bowlers had a Turkey at some point of the final game with the Devil’s Rainbow topping out with a Hip Thrusting Hambone. The Redline was the cause of all the confusion when the knocked down pins got out of whack and somehow he bowled his 10th frame in the 8th or something to that effect. Don’t ask!! In any event he ended with a very strong 210. In addition to D-Bo’s Hambone, he threw down a turkey to start the game (as did Brooklyn Brian) and combo’d the group up into a record 8 strikes in one game (with no spares, which also at the very least ties a record) and laid down a B-E-A-youtiful 212. The combo 422 gave Team Red Bow the unquestioned team game and also both men their first 200 games of 2008. In the end though, the night was for the Rock Chalk Tortoise, as the Shelled One knocked down every pin placed in front of him going into the 10th frame and again started with a strike and then picked up 9 of the ten pins on his second ball, leaving only the 3 pin standing between him and the elusive CLOSED game…..
……And there that pin still stands…… leaving the molasses like reptile at 223 for the win

Sounds epic! I will post the story when I get time on the site. I got home at 10:30 last night. I had the game TiVo’d and knew nothing about what had happened. I stopped by my liquor store for beer and the guy had 1140 on the radio!!! Normally it’s a habibe stuff!! I heard something like “with under a minute Kansas….” I ran out of the store yelling “Turn it off! Turn it off!!!!” I poked my head back in with my ears plugged and he nodded that it was off. After I explained myself he couldn’t stop laughing. “I’m going to call you Crazy Crown Guy from now on!” I guess it’s kinda like “Hey Black ass!” So I got home and was able to watch the entire game with no knowledge of how great the end would be. My roommate had also locked himself away from the game so we got to enjoy it together(cute huh?).
Back to taxes now. Talk to you in another week or so!
