A perfect game. The most difficult achievement a bowler can accomplish.
It’s even more impressive when a blind World War II veteran does it.
That was the scene at Saturday evening’s All-League Playoffs at Century Lanes in Alta. Dale Davis, just three months
from his 79th birthday, his sight stolen years ago by macular degeneration,
rolled 12 consecutive strikes in front of an enthusiastic and supportive crowd.
The effort was the first-ever 300 game at Century.
“It was quite a thrill,” Davis said of the achievement. “When I got to the tenth frame, I said ‘Lord, let me throw three more good balls.’ When I did, people on other teams were yelling and cheering. A few guys were
hugging me and almost broke my skinny bones.”
With his neatly combed back hair and 115-pound frame, Davis is proud of the fact
he still uses the heaviest ball available, explaining that he and his ball “weigh over 130 pounds together.”
