The weirdest tournament ever

One sometimes think that have seen everything in bowling. Fortunately, reality is always richer than fiction and from time to time stories like the next one come to us.

What's the bigger prize you have ever seen in bowling? In Spain it could be around 4.000 euros or so for the Florentino. Or even close to 10.000 if we consider the European Tour events at Barcelona.

In Qatar in 2008 the prize was 30.000 euros, and 50.000 $ last year. On the PBA, some years ago, you could earn around 200.000$ for winning the bigger Major. All that is not bad, for sue, but... what about a tournament where the winner can get some properties valued at 850.000$? Or 350.000 $ if you prefer cash...

It sounds weird, but tempting. I know. And... what will you think if I tell you that players will bowl ONLY with house bowling balls? More strange even.

But... if I add that players will just bowl one 20-frames game? That's so weird that perhaps it's better that you don't know that the pin 1 won't be placed. Never!

This mix of nonsense rules and surrealism will take shape nex May 19th in Florida, USA.

I am not pretty sure if this is a great or bad idea.

You can read all the detais at the official web site. Good luck to all the participant. I guess I won't be on of them.
