The Craziest Most Unexpected Ending In PBA Bowling History!!

[@kendrabaker2696]

Great job on filming Nick. That was very intense watching the final game. Congratulations to Lumberjacks on the win. Sad to see Norm leaving the sport, but I'm sure he'll be watching all the younger people in the future.

[@Stuck0nLvl1]

That camera angle from up top is amazing! Wish we got more bowling footage from up top like that, awesome stuff!

[@derrickdevildog5724]

Absolutely nuts. My wife and I were on the edges of our seats. You gave a great accounting of your self. That 7 10, you got HOSED. Congratulations to you and your team. It was fun to watch.

[@TheHouseBowling]

Was amazing to be a part of!!

[@RUSure2449]

Thanks Nick! You guys fought through some tough situations like champions!

[@twelvexes]

my family flew to portland for the week just for the pba league and it was absolutely incredible! the pros are so accessible and friendly it’s amazing. tv does not do justice to how loud it is in that building. it’s ten times louder in person than on tv. such an awesome experience. congrats lumberjacks! incredible comeback!

[@FaulkMartialArts]

Freaky, dramatic, intense, emotional, unbelievable... Aside from that, Packy, it was pretty routine! Lol... So awesome, big guy! So happy for the sport, Mighty Norm, and you big guy... tough shot in the 5th game and your last shot! WOW!

[@BowlingNDrums]

I was on the edge of my seat! That was so awesome and exciting. Congrats lumberjack’s!! Both teams gave an awesome performance.

[@bryanhallman8183]

Pretty cool of Wes to let Norm make the last shot of the show - a strike. Sad to see him lose, but congrats on a great team win.

[@Nlangkirby135]

Congratulations, Packy. Special thanks to cameraman Nick... ironically that's also my name.

Easily the the most insane match I've ever watched. Gotta be honest, I teared up at the end with Norm

Didn’t we all’

[@rickypaulinelli9908]

Arturo was on the powder😂😂

[@cjones3681]

Unbelievable match!! Was great seeing you and everyone out there battling and it definitely did not disappoint. Shout out to Norm for an amazing career. Legend 💪

[@kristenanderson5273]

2:03- Any moments with Brad are always worth watching imho, lol! Great content Packy and enjoyed the PBA experience. Would loved to have spent more time with House members, especially Brad, but it's highly understandable when guys are busy and they don't have much down time in between bowling events.

[@christopherinman3241]

That was better than the telecast, thanks..

[@christopherinman3241]

Was at Southpoint two weeks ago and met a whole lot of you that I have never bowled with or against, must say, you guys and girls are doing the sport Great!! And were so friendly......

This tournament match easily could be a movie. It was insane. With that being said, you got RIPPED on that 7/10!

[@charlesromine1100]

Nice job everyone keep it up

[@AndrewSmith-pc8eq]

Best T.V show finish EVER!!!!!

[@paulwest8185]

When your amped up at Bayside, it really changes everything. In 2015, it had a similar situation where the first ever show at bayside where it was NYC vs Brooklyn. No spares were made until the sixth frame. PB3, Weber, Rash, Sterner, Archer, and Scott Norton all opened and Sterner was the only split. Absolutely crazy. You going to bowl at Callahan’s for NEBA this weekend?

[@Cdcd4393]

Crazy ending.

[@micahgrubb6867]

God i love to bowl. Bowled leagues since i was 12 . But this pba stuff is kind of a big nerd convention!

[@Hellrazer8504]

I was watching this on tv... when you came up I looked at my wife and said "hey I know who he is!"

[@itsdaley]

Just imagine if every title match was this intense 😳 😬. And thought it was amazing that wes let norm take his last shot 👏

[@scottythompson940]

Cool video talk tech bowling the house bowling packey

Amazing. Best video yet biddy

Arturo es un chingon, un crack! Congrats to the Lumberjacks

arturo was awesome, his celebrations too

[@lilnbigman]

Watched it live it was great and those splits oh man. When you left 7-10 no I said but then down 2-0 come back yes! Plus good ole Norm Duke will be missed.

[@tapemaster]

How is it even possible to leave a 7-10 with that near perfect pocket hit? Great match. I've watched it twice. Congrats!

[@MikeDCWeld]

It was rigged.

You can really see the advantage a lefty has now with the colored oil and some of these camera angles the righty’s break there side down quick the left stays pristine basically

[@chipotlelover217]

This was crazy

[@donniewakemup8729]

Congrats on the three-peat!

[@tria1583]

Can confirm: it was indeed the craziest, and most unexpected ending

[@Srgfowler]

I just started bowling not too long ago thanks to people like you, and I never realized how many elitist and gatekeepers there are in this sport.

[@joshuadaley5031]

Packy=GOAT

[@jeramiescott3364]

Umm yeah PBA needs this camera POV

[@2AChef-n-BBQ]

Nothing funnier than watching Prather and PsychOgle choke

[@VENOM_kills]

That you've ever experienced?! Did you hear the casting on FS1? Randy Pedersen was losing his mind. Dude is gonna be recovering for at least a week after the several heart attacks he had.

[@jeremybaumann9180]

My biggest question…. Did Kyle give Arturo the MVP trophy since he said he deserved it?

[@petetoemmes6673]

Your 7-10 should go down as the definition of a double rap. Yeah, I kind of get swishy pocket 7-10s - had a few myself. But a deck clearing double rap 7-10 is quite a thing to see.

[@glen4688]

Everyone keeps saying that the Portland team is the first to win three, but according to the winners list, the Atom Splitters have won it three times (2014, 15, and 18). Portland is the first to win three in a row, though…

[@elock]

The fact that the "league" which are the most fun events to watch lasts a week with 3 broadcasts is such a missed opportunity for the PBA

[@cbrdealer]

This should have been an EZ clap for the strikers. They really... dropped the ball....

[@lukeplays7442]

Hi 😊

[@lukeplays7442]

Hi

[@caseycooper6632]

Packy putting a video he losing on a tournament on his channel 😶

[@TXP9]

Love Norm, but I thought it was strange that he was trying to hook it so much throughout this competition. He’s always done best playing it straighter, but just my opinion.

[@sprocket454]

Wes never finished the 10th frame. Norm's shot doesn't count. Wrong bowler, wrong lane. Wes still has to throw the final ball. Good thing it's the PBA and not the USBC. In the USBC if a bowler doesn't finish a game and it's not due to emergency or injury, then they get zero for all incomplete frames remaining in the game. The 10th was incomplete so that's zero for the entire 10th frame and the Lumberjacks lose by 5 pins. Unless Wes just chucked one up the gutter off camera. BTW, I'm not serious that the Lumberjacks should lose; I just think it's one more weird thing that happened in an already bizarre match.

[@spncrbriggs]

Wow how go ahead 2-0 and lose wow

[@Tony-Jabroni]

Not going to lie, I wanted to see norm win

[@lukeplays7442]

Hi 3

[@lauratreadwell4436]

That has to be the most batsh*t crazy ending to a bowling match that I've ever seen. I don't care what anyone says; the fans had a hand in all of those missed spares. These guys are professional. They bowl countless games/hours a week. You're telling me that Prather doesn't know how to pick up a 9 pin? Ogle missing a 7? He's not a lefty. No excuse for a right handed bowler to miss a 7 pin (even though I miss it once in a blue moon). No one will say it, but I think the fans making all that damn noise played a role in it. Bowling is about concentration and focus. How the hell can you concentrate with those people making all that damn noise?! I almost wished it was back to Covid times when they had no fans. I always root for Packy, but I was pulling for Norm. Would have been nice for him to go out with a W.

[@TheHouseBowling]

Glad you always root for me and also I absolutely love the fans!! Feels like your bowling in front of a soccer arena!

[@treads2595]

@@TheHouseBowling That's because you are young and not old and cranky like me. LOL! Congrats on winning. I'm glad you didn't let the fans distract you. : )

[@brianschmit7757]

Dude, black stuff in your teeth at the beginning, ick!

[@DBeMeNLV]

This is NOT the most unexpected ending in bowling history!!!! You haven't been around bowlng long enough obviously. More two handed hacks as well.

[@jpennyp]

Packy, that was the most incredible finish to anything bowling I have seen in 50 years in the sport. You should be proud of your accomplishment and the way you helped carry the team with Arturo. Great job!!

[@TheHouseBowling]

Small piece of a larger puzzle glad you be a part of a great team!

[@tsant6591]

Dude, that was insane! Been a bowling fan for over 35 years, and I have to say, that was the most exciting match I've ever seen. Norm, and everyone else has done so much for the sport, and it all ended perfectly! Congrats to everyone involved!

[@davidhensel7666]

Packy & Quintero for shared MVP. No disrespect, Kyle.

[@rebootnut]

I kept waiting for Aurturo to yell "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!?" in Spanish.

[@eainthecutz1790]

That camera angle from above was sick !! Good job 👏

[@TheHouseBowling]

Appreciate everything nicks helped me out with this week!

[@millsdude]

Yeah that show was everything, riveting, insane, emotional. Back and forth, looked like you were going to get shut out, then all of a sudden ... And those last 3 frames, just draw dropping. Seen some comments on social media about criticizing the missed single pin spares but part of the draw of this game at the pro level is that you all come off as regular guys grinding it out on tour week to week. Those of us who follow know you are all at the top of the game and better than the rest of us but the whole drama that unfolded with the crowd energy was just great entertainment which ultimately is good the future of the game. Seeing that lead go back and forth with each shot with the title on the line. I'm sure you guys are used to the pressure but amping it up with TV and that crowd it definitely affected the play and it made for compelling television. Packy, you were pretty awesome on Sunday, what did you miss the pocket once? That pocket 7-10, heartbreaking for you in the moment, I'm sure but I was screaming into my TV. I hadn't had a moment like that since Mariano Rivera coughed up the lead against the D-Backs in the 2001 series. But for you it was a great shot, certainly not an error but the bowling gods determined it was time for that 7-10. For my money, I would have named you as the MVP for the team. You were pretty rock solid, made key shots when the team needed it and got them pumped up. Arturo definitely got things pumped up also you were right there and I think made better shots. The ending with Norm throwing that last shot, flush in the pocket with 10 in the pit, tears streaming down his face is one of the great, if not greatest PBA moment.

[@bosoares]

That ending was insane. Looked like neither team wanted to win. I thought you guys were letting the Strikers win for Norm. And they were letting the Lumberjacks get the 3-peat. Crazy.

[@ChimpyyPlays]

U the goat bosoares thanks for posting full match videos

[@coopergates9680]

Because the oil vacuums chewed up the mids so the righties moved way left and ball reaction got ugly

[@johnnyjdogg33]

Great Job Nick, Congrats Packy and the Lumberjacks! Craziest ending but so much fun!

[@Lucasbowls]

That was the most insane and anti-climatic ending to a PBA League in the 64 years of the PBA Tour! Congratulations to you and the lumberjacks for a three-peat victory and to Norm, you will be an absolute living legend in all our hearts. ♥️👍 #thankyounorm

[@paulphillips9789]

Great show. Arturo and Packy kept the team in the match. Madison even got some air time. Thanks to Norm.

[@TheHouseBowling]

Madison was there to support the whole time!

[@CFRGaming_Ociy16]

He was throwing a purple hammer🤣 I’m not surprised one bit

[@izzy7067]

Such good energy in that room!!!!

[@briguyinsi]

Crazy finish, just crazy. I feel like bowling Team or Baker games are almost always more pressure packed, because you’re not just letting yourself down, you’re letting the whole team down if you sh*t the bed.

[@tria1583]

100%. In addition, since you’re only bowling two frames a game I feel like it would be soooo much harder to expect and read the transitions

[@tbs7163]

All it took was the announcers saying the Lumberjacks had no open frames for 4+ games and then the "flood gates" opened. Don't they know about comments like that during free throw streaks? Congrats on the 3rd team championship. Great video "up top". Cool to see a perspective not on TV. Thanks Nick for the awesome shots.

[@reclaimer429fishing]

Did Arturo hurt his leg/ankle? When he hit the ground on that shot????

[@mattfukuda1223]

What a finish!! Congrats Lumberjacks!! Thanks to Nick for the camera work!!

[@chipwhite7170]

In my opinion packy, you should have been MVP!

[@rammartinez1933]

Great Drama for bowling but Matt Ogle should not have been anchor

[@MrMice...]

This is "league night" bowling, everyone loud, having a good time. Highs, lows, the crowd's "audio track" adds to the suspense and result. Really think this format would help get more eyeballs for TV (and viral internet) and then start bumping up the money side of things. Great show.

[@ryburnsjr]

Wow jusT wow....props to the cameraman !!!😀😀😀😀

[@glen4688]

I feel like everyone else. What a rollercoaster! I was heartbroken for Kris after that nine pin miss, but wow, what an unbelievable sequence of events! I would have been happy for Norm to get that win, but in the end never bet against “the House”! 💪

[@Ironfangzu]

I'm sure Kris feels horrible about the missed spare, but he can laugh it off because his team won. The one I feel really bad for is Matt Ogle. He has bowled so well the whole tournament, and he basically had one instance of mistake which cost his team the match. But it's happened to all of us. We've all failed to come through at one point or another.
