Tidbits from the Gerald R. Fortier Bowling League
March 9, 2026
Week 23
Today, I don’t want to talk about teams because 1st place is all sewed up. I want to talk about individuals.
On lanes 19-20: Karl (Mr. Nice Guy) Peterson was “on fire.” He needed a 10 on his final ball to tie Will Helmlinger with a 246. Got it! Will and Karl were tied with a season high of 246 each.
But wait…less than an hour later, it was a different story. Bruce (B.B.) Burger (on lanes 19-20) was about to upset the “apple cart.” Frame 1 – an open. Frame 2 – a spare. Then 8 straight strikes. Bruce had a 258 – a new season high. Wow! Great!!
Dave (Albany Flyer) Cady won our Scholarship 50/50. $125.00 to Dave and the same for the Scholarship Fund.
There is “bad blood” on lanes 17-18. The “Bad Boys” will give the “Dudes” an old-fashioned beating. Bob Callahan is a “has been.”
See you all Thursday.
