I can't tell whether you're being sarcastic or not.

There are some of us who grew up on the old Candlepin Bowling show 
with Don Gillis, and missed it when it finally left the airwaves. Our 
particular style of bowling is as much a part of New England as clam 
chowder, baked beans, and old rock fences.

Besides, a game where no one -- NO ONE -- has ever had a 'perfect 
score' means there's still something to aspire to. Perfect games are 
far too common in tenpin. In fact, it was the commonality of perfect 
games that originally inspired the development of candlepin bowling 
anyway.



And so we're not part of the Top Ten markets anymore.  Big deal. 
Demographics come, and demographics go.
