As Chopper says in the beginning of the program. this is truly a "David and Goliath" game. Little Sammy Dungan plays against Big Pro-bowler Mark Winslow. Sammy's first ball of the game ends up in the gutter, but he presses back by knocking down 8 pins! That's a tremendous comeback for a 6-year-old! Mark's first few frames aren't played as well as the rest of his game. By the end of the game, Mark is picking up strikes like Wally tells us when he is nude! Wally asks who's idea it was to pair a huge pro with a peanut of a kid. Chopper blames Wally, who denies it. Mark is at 5 strikes in a row. Samy is at...zero. As Sammy goes up to bowl, Chet starts playing that infamous theme from "Rocky". Uunfortunatly, Sammy's double gutter does not make his mother happy. And, boy, how three years does a number to the Queen Pins! They are back to their original red dresses but their hair! Someone teased the hell out of them! They're wild!

Take a close look at Sammy's mom.  She ends up being Chopper's TV wife in an upcoming Inside Bowling called "Best Friends."


Flipp! A true alternative band with a true alternative sound! And true alternative wardrobe!

Watch for Brinn in the audience of at least one of the new shows.


 

Chopper and Wally interview pro-bowler Doug Philstrom. Doug has been removed from the game because of an injury he developed in his back ("from vertebrae A to vertebrae 6B" says his physical therapist). Doug contends he got the injury from removing a cheese pizza from his oven. However, secret serveillence video reveals that Doug was doing heavy lifting of furniture, like chairs, and inept people, like his therapist. Although both Doug and his therapist deny the video, was Doug Philstrom a man destined for greatness? A man who had a stining future ahead of him and had it snatched away? A man now diminished to working on his (albeit disgusting) hobby of making log cabins out of sausages and bacon? Or a man bilking workman's comp? Time will tell.Listen to this installment of "Inside Bowling" in RealAudio!
