Legally Blind Man Bowls Perfect Game

Legally Blind Man Bowls Perfect Game

from Don Chavez by Don Chavez

ALTA, Iowa—A 78-year-old legally blind man nicknamed “The Hammer” has bowled a perfect game. Dale Davis of Alta, Iowa, nailed 12 consecutive strikes and reached 300 on Saturday night during league play.
Century Lanes owner Clem Ledoux said Davis’ game didn’t draw much attention until he reached 10 strikes. That’s when folks poured out of the bar to watch his final two shots.

Davis, who stands 5-foot-8 and just 115 pounds, threw a “Brooklyn,” where a right-hander strikes the left side of the head pin, for his final strike. The feat brought wild cheers from Davis’ fellow bowlers and onlookers.

I’m happy for “The Hammer” and everything, but aren’t we all “legally blind” when we go bowling after 12 beers. This guy still has vision in his right eye, and I bet you anything it’s better than mine when I’m shitcanned.

Props to the AP for picking up this story. You know you have a winner when you can write about two guys named “The Hammer” and Clem in the same story.
