Professional Bowling Is Back!

Last month I uploaded a post on how bowling can come back from this Covid-imposed shutdown by replicating a promotion from the past and updating it for toady’s times. In that previous post I referenced that my inspiration for reviving a past promotion came from the announcement of last month’s Champions For Charity golf match between Tiger Woods/Peyton Manning and Phil Mickelson/Tom Brady, which was a huge ratings success for several networks and corporate sponsors.

When I corresponded with PBA Commissioner Tom Clark it seems that he had similar ideas and so I’m happy to report that PBA Bowling action will be back starting June 6^th with some special events for the fans which will be televised on various FOX Sports channels.

Here is the current schedule:

PBA Strike Derby
Where: Bowlero Jupiter, FL
When: Saturday, June 6, 7-9 pm ET
TV: FOX

PBA Summer Clash
Where: Bowlero Jupiter, FL
When: Saturday, June 13, 6-8 pm ET

PBA King of the Lanes

This is great to see. In the words of my grandfather Andy Varipapa, “Keep ‘em Rolling!”
