It was May of 1992, and Paul Berger was on TV for the 43rd time, and he had to face off against defending champion Dave Richards. What no one was expecting that day was that Paul Berger would make history by bring the only person to hit a 500 Triple up to this day on TV. With unbelievable shots, many strikes, and a great crowd, this stands out as my all time favorite Candlepin Bowling telecast, and I'm sure you'll like it too.

Here is part 4 of Paul Berger vs. Dave Richards.

Enjoy! :)

  • Having bowled tenpins, duckpins and candlepins, the last is without a doubt more difficult. You'd be very surprised how hard it is to control the ball. My normal ball speed with 10 pin is 16 mph and I'll tell you what......it's 25+ throwing candelpins.

    Candelpins will show you how accurate you are. Leave a single pin with no wood.....there is no room. You make it or miss it....plain and simple.

    I really think it's a must do for anyone loving the sport of bowling.

  • Nice franglais.

  • @TheCraftingZone They brought me here too.

  • Mighty mighty bosstones know what's up!

  • i checked out this video because the mighty mighty bosstones wrote a song about him, i wanted to see what all the hubub was about

  • @tedlogan42 Me too, and I live in candlepin country (central/eastern MA)! lol... I used to watch this on channel 5 back in the day... cartoons would end, bowling would begin!

  • Just learned of this legendary performance from the Bosstones' new "Candlepin Paul" song. Probably going to be one of many.

  • That looks much harder than ten-pin. But i dunno, as a recreational player I think I wouldn't have the patience. I am already mediocre at ten-pin, I don't think I could handle sucking complete nuts at candlepin.

  • The audience's reactions.

  • this looks fun for some reason.............

  • @Recklousboy thats what she said

  • @Recklousboy They average around 2 lbs, 6 oz.
