[stevieway61190]

just 2 settle any arguaments about how many strikes is a perfect game its 12 ok. 10 frames and if you get a strike in the 10th frame then you have another 2 shots 2 get another 2 strikes. trust me on this ppl. im a league bowler and i also work in a bowling alley. thanks

ive never heard of that

[thunderball009]

Robert Smith uses that technique to shoot some of the spares!

[MikeHL78]

@thunderball009 Gary Dickinson uses 2 fingers to shoot all of his spares, too.

[ReventonF22]

Old bowling balls were only 2 finger grip back in the day, but as bowling progressed, the 3rd finger hole was added...

[IceCrusherchris]

I'd love to bowl on those lanes with the shown equipment!

Made in 1934 and nominated for an Oscar in the short film category.

The NRA insignia shown next to the MGM Lion at the start refers not to the National Rifle Association, but the National Recovery Act, one of the government's responses to the Great Depression.

On camera besides Andy Varipapa are Sally McKee, inept bowler Buster Brodie (b. Max Broida) and pin boy Ray Turner, subject of the stereotyping characteristic of the day.

Pete Smith, announcer, was famed for making short films.

[mrtvmankiller01]

bahahaha gotta love the ending

[boywithshades]

love the racist touch. gotta love that era.

[rstp354]

Amazing - Andy used the "conventional" to the 2nd knuckle, grip...

[dcbandnerd]

I guess this was when they were first using the three fingered grip.

Thanks for the video. Andy was one of the greatest.

[NipkowDisk]

I believe Andy Varipapa was the most talented bowler that ever lived- he was born with it. There will never be another like him. Thank you for posting this excellent clip!
