Interesting/hateful opponents during a league/tournament
-
Have you met/seen any interesting or hateful opponents during a competition? I did come across some rather interesting ones that really left deep impressions. The lady that came to bowl in a halter dress and a man who taunted weaker opponents

i had a chat with a bowling friend yesterday, and he told me abt an incident during last years AIA Singapore Open.
He was bowling with this guy who took his own sweet time, standing next to the ball return machine, wiping his ball, and very 'nice' to let bowlers from the alternate lanes to bowl first. His time wasting affected my friend, and after 3 game, my friend is more likely not to qualify. (it's a 4 game series block)
Thus, my friend, seeing that this guy had already had a 600+ series from the 3 games, decide to do the same thing back to the guy, taking his own sweet time and allowing others to bowl first. In the end, the guy seem to be affected too, and his final game is a 150+... -
Some bowlers really try ways and means to distract others and also got attitude problem. There was once one who even banged his ball at me. It was his turn to bowl at another lane (not even a shared land with mine at the time). I just merely stretched and took my ball so that I can clean it as it was also my turn. He just banged his ball down loudly back and sulked away. It was so embarassing.Originally posted by eaj:i had a chat with a bowling friend yesterday, and he told me abt an incident during last years AIA Singapore Open.

i still remember long long time ago, a rival team at classic bowl "accidentally" drop his ball on the approach, just when one of moi teams is preparing to bowl.
His score drop to 150+, for a normal 190+ bowler. -

I alway meet bowler who kick the ball return when they cannot perform. Does it mean by doing that their bowling ball will perform better. LOLOriginally posted by apple*:hahaha... hopefully u can concentrate ur game after knowing who is she..
