For the second time in just over three months, patrons at McCurdy Bowling Centre witnessed a perfect game.
Lorne Craig bowled the perfect 300 score on Thursday, Jan. 17 and had at least a couple of dozen people cheering him on while he did so.
The final strike of Craig’s memorable achievement was caught on camera and posted to the McCurdy Bowling Centre Facebook page.
According to the post, Craig will split the perfect game cash with Terry Tremblay, who bowled his perfect game on Oct. 8, 2018.
That prize money is $3,250 and it comes from a number of local businesses who donate funds to support any bowler who achieves the impressive accomplishment.
If anyone else is to bowl a perfect game before the end of the bowling season, they’ll split the pot with Tremblay and Craig.
For those who don’t know, a perfect game is achieved by rolling a strike during every frame.
Not only do you have to roll a strike in 10 straight frames, but you also have to add another pair in the final game to make it 12 total strikes.
