Ultimate 128 vs. 135

We had a very scientific team test of 128 vs. 135 last night at Lanes & Games in Cambridge.

On the 128 team:
amybang
windmaker
LittleVik
mugennosora

On the 135 team:
Rachel
Bdh821
arrutled
Megan (Meghan?) (arrutled's girlfriend, because she arrived in a 135)

The test:
Bowling (aka big ball bowling in New England)

The scores:
128ers: 451
135ers: 456

As you can see, it was a photo finish, with the 135ers beating the 128ers by just a roundel. There was some protesting among the 128ers because Megan is not a true 135 owner. A future rematch will be necessary, maybe many. Other tests may be proposed. Wii MarioKart anyone?

Was that "Big Balls" as in ten pin bowling with those giant balls with the holes in them to hold onto?

I thought you guys up there bowled candlestick or duckpins.

I am a duckpin bowler myself.....down here in Maryland.

The practice runs were on candlepin lanes because League Night was using the others. But when things got down to chrome trim, we went for the real thing.
