Well, a lot of companies also paid incentives for the bowlers to wear their stuff on TV. Kind of like seeing all the decals and logos on the NASCAR drivers outfits and cars. Most of that stuff hardly has an effect on their release, some did.

This was when there was still prestige left in the sport, especially the majors. Today's PBA is a joke, with the cookie cutter lanes, and the balls that are on steroids. This is when the truly best came out on top, not the player who had the best equipment.

[gurowiczw]

guppy is such a class act and an amazing personality, always considered himself more an entertainer than a bowler

[BurkeDevlin66]

he had a wide array of wild trousers and shirts and reminded me of a modern day Charles Nelson Reilly

[rallyden]

awesome match!

[monsterbowler]

Roth may have carried some sloppy strikes, but that shot in the 11th was great.

[82centsforacoke]

You get that kind of carry when your Mark Roth lol.

[DaCaptain924]

I'd love to meet Guppy Troup--he's from my hometown, Columbia SC. :)

...meeting Mr. Roth Legend wouldn't be to bad either! How ironic that his only major came against Guppy. Both guys bowled their best, but Mark deserved to win.

[odiedude]

LOL at the guy screaming around 3:27 :D

[cfhdomination]

Holy shit, it's Ernie "Big Ern" McCracken lol!!

[BigBHammer278]

Yea, Guppy did outbowl mark, Guppy carried just about every pocket hit. He was right in there. Mark, how ever, carried some of the worst shots ever. I was talking to Guppy at the TST Master, (the tour me and his son bowled on), and he said he couldn't beleive that he had left that 4 pin.

and you sookie1996, if guppy could make the telecast and barley hook the ball, he doesn't suck.

[monsterbowler]

I can respect that Guppy was surprised at the 4 pin, but it was left off his hand it looked like. Kinda tight, like he didn't give it enough room.

Take it with a grain of salt, because I probably won't be there to throw to win the US Open.

[irishpogi]

This was a great match! Guppy outbowled Mark just like Dick Ritger did in the 70 TOC telecast against the late Don Johnson.

Another great upload.

[sookie1996]

Guppy Troup sucks!!!

[dp92492]

Why Do u say that? because he doesnt rev it up...or just because he is better that you will ever be

[joelspan]

more because this is youtube, and that person is likely 7 years old.

[sommerssmith]

Ugly pants, sunglasses, and antics make a bowler not worth bowling against.
