BBQ Sauce Bowling

Every year Doug gets a gift card from his employer for a local bowling alley. He usually just stops in to pick up the gift card and leave. This year I went with him so we could use it for dinner for the evening. (We never used the 2 we already have). When we got there they had a whole side of the bowling alley to themselves and were about to start a raffle.

I was kind of a party pooper when we got there. I didn't want to bowl; the shirt and capris I had on weren't going to cooperate for bowling - the shirt was going to pull up and my capris would pull down in the back although I had a belt on, making it a tug of war while trying to have fun. Oh, and I had flip flops on.

We ended up bowling and it was really fun. His coworkers are a blast, but I already knew that! They had these FANCY socks to purchase, they have a bowling ball and pins on them - you'll see at the bottom that they were NOT lucky socks.

The raffle and games were fun too. Doug won a hotel stay at the hotel in front of his job.

The games were hard. The manager set up really difficult pins for people to knock down. He was offering up to $300 gift cards at times. The split Doug had to try to pick up was worth $250, but he missed. The manager gave him, and I think everyone that was drawn from a raffle that tried, 3 free games.

The title of this post comes from a joke that started when we ordered food. Doug and I ordered a BBQ Chicken Pizza and trying to eat something with BBQ sauce while bowling is difficult. We started saying that if we got BBQ sauce all over the ball the pins might stick to it and our scores would be better. It wasn't working though.

I think we have weird looks on our faces in this photo, but we had a mouth full of pizza that we were trying to conceal.
Just before Doug picked up his spare. (We were glow bowling.)

Love the face? I missed picking up the spare.

Doug ended up bowling a 126 and I ended up with a 78. Oh yeah, look out pro bowlers!! I'm just under 250 points from kicking your butts!
