These videos make my phone bill worth it!!!!

[@MBSbuff]

A very great telecast. Nice job.

[@SportsBoss999]

I love when Gary Dickinson plays the 1-2 boards!

[@louiscsanko3673]

I love the commercial with Billy the Kid and the " Shocks" from Monroe, and he says " What's a car?"

[@louiscsanko3673]

This was before urethane Balls, and i believe this was when you had to be precise 👍👍

[@bobby_c7671]

can you imagine Roth using reactive equipment? ...

[@louiscsanko3673]

Mike Durbin Also A great Textbook Style!!!

[@louiscsanko3673]

Wayne Webb truly is a one Hander!!!

[@louiscsanko3673]

Eddie Elias(RIP) The man Who Started the P.B.A. Tour.

[@louiscsanko3673]

The [ 3,6,9,10 ] is a Spare that Gives every bowler a Headache!! The best way to convert it is Not Leaving it!!

[@johnseal56]

Such a classy broadcast, as they all were until they tried to "rock it up" in the mid-1990s. One of the best announcing teams in the business, the bowlers dressed well (even Guppy and Schlegel looked good with their loud attire), and the music bumpers were top notch. I can't wait until this style of production returns, as it will I'm sure.

[@michaelpalermo354]

This style will never return. Our culture won’t permit it. America used to have class. No longer.

[@johnseal56]

@@michaelpalermo354 It pains me to agree after a couple of years passed since I wrote this. Maybe it will cycle back after a couple of generations, when we're all long past.

[@michaelpalermo354]

@@johnseal56 It pains me too. This younger generation simply has no clue as to how things used to be and what has been lost.

[@Igloo3471]

It's all flashy gimmicks and silly music etc now. Dumbed down for an even dumber modern audience. Commentators suck massively these days.

[@BaseFury]

It was GREAT being in the Tucson area in 1980. Wayne was based there, then, at Golden Pin Lanes. He and Travis (wife) would show up there every so often just because. Good dude. Travis was gorgeous, lol. Good times. Shame he kinda pissed things away. Wayne Webb was definitely destined for greatness.

[@louiscsanko3673]

Chris Schenkel ( RIP) & Bo Burton are My Favorite Bowling BOWLING Commentators!!! Sorry, i Studder when i Text Text, !!

[@louiscsanko3673]

Wayne Webb gets a Great Rotation on the ball!!!

[@TimothyBukowskiApologist]

Very entertaining title match!

[@louiscsanko3673]

Bill Spigner has a textbook Style!!

[@TonysMusic1974]

18:17 That is some crazy high tech stuff!!

[@MrChristopherHaas]

Carpentier/Brito vs California Blondes sounds good to me

[@Igloo3471]

Pins sound like they're made of rubber in this telecast.

[@20alphabet]

Wayne Webb is a great talent, but a tragic story. Investing your life in a once great sport only to see the demise of that sport is a heartbreak few can truly understand. While bowlers of this caliber had at one time enjoyed rock star status as the fruits of their labor, they are now little more than parodies. Shame that. Great bowling, Wayne!

[@mrmedallis]

20alphabet what are you talking about. All over the place.

[@douglasharris5216]

mrmedallis he’s talking about the winnings Webb had earned being reinvested into a sport that started to die at his retirement. Basically he lost his investment to the sport he loved.

[@peteg475]

He also admits he had a gambling problem, which will obviously eat into your life savings. That didn't help.

[@bobby_c7671]

Webb always loved to live large. It was his own doing.

[@andrewphillips2179]

it was an excellent stepladder finals

[@douglasharris5216]

Andrew Phillips Mark Roth and Earl Anthony have bowled some exciting matches

[@JSmith-zr2ve]

You must be the only one who likes his own comment. LMAO.

[@BaseFury]

Brunswick Mark X....VERY powerful ball out of the box....broke down quickly, tho...

[@monkeypoo47]

Especially if you installed finger grips. Ball would just explode around that area

[@joeambrose3260]

Holman got 15 in a row too a couple of years before

[@CowSaysMooMoo]

Johnny Gunther had 16 in a row when he threw his 300

[@dnx112]

My Grandma called lil marshall creep holman. 😮 😂 😂 👍🤑
