The Bowling Contest

My grandpa passed away on 1 11 2012, and he loved bowling. So when I started bowling (because of a girl) naturally when I got good I bowled with him and my dad. I had never seen a man that loved bowling that much, he would go out of his way to congratulate other bowlers that bowled well, even people that were bowling against us. Even after 17 years of bowling in the same league with many of the same people and never finishing higher than 8th place out of 12 teams. As a 22 year old punk back than I couldn't fathom how or why he would do that, especially when he was losing. Even now at 32 I still will rarely give props to people unless they pick up an amazing split or shoot 300.

So I am running a contest in his honor, a man that just wanted to see other people do well (even at his own expense). So here is the contest, guess my what I will shoot for my series this Wednesday 1-18-2012.

For those unfamiliar to bowling a series is the total score that you bowl for 3 games in a league night. I will also give you guys some helpful hints, my average this year is 217, my low series this year is around 560, and my high series is around 740. My last 2 weeks of bowling I have shoot 671 and 629, and my highest series ever is 822. If for some reason I can't bowl this Wednesday the contest will be moved to the next week.

The rules:
One guess per person
Must have a U.S. or Canada mailing address
50 different people can guess, first come first serve
Guesses are valid from the time of this post till we fill up or 1-18-2012 at 5 pm Eastern, which ever comes first.

The prize:
One silver quarter, and a few other goodies that I can dig up.

The catches:
When you put your guess in also include the scores of all 3 games because if you get all the scores exactly right and in the right order I will include a Silver Eagle in with your prize. If you guess the exact right score but get the games wrong I will turn the silver quarter into a silver half (90 percent.

Last hint I haven't shot a game under 150 in years, so it is highly unlikely that I will do so, and 300 is the best score you can shoot in one game and I have never done that. (I have been very close a few times including twice this year).

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
