@themrfreeze07 You have to understand that until the 2000s, there weren't any "teams" like Storm, Brunswick, etc. Each pro during the 1960s-1990s signed several contracts, each for the shirt, the ball, the glove, the grips, etc. Several of the charter PBA members were once members of the Budweiser team during the 1950s, but that's as far as the "team" thing went. Bowling basically copied golf (Nike, Titleist, etc.) when it comes to teams supported by sponsors.
