One of my all time favorite bowling matches. Johnny threw a nice, sweet looking hook ball which destroyed the pins. He had determination written all over his face. Walter knew he was done.

Well done Johnny. If you can do it we all can even a disabled adult like me. I’ve been bowling for 14 years I believe. I enjoyed it and I’ve been bowling ever since. My highest game scratch is 219. My highest game no tap is 241. I will get that 300 eventually. I’ll never give up bowling.

Ayush Maddikonda I have Cerebral Palsy. My right arm is my good arm. My left arm isn't that good. I use my left arm to hold paper down while writing. I also used to be in a wheelchair when I was little. When I was 3 years old I had leg surgery so I could walk. Sometimes I hate being disabled but I don't let that get in my way. I also have seizures from time to time that really gets on my nerves. Hopefully those things will go away for good sometime in the future. Another thing my eye sight isn't that good because of those seizures. I hope there will be a way to get my eyes fixed.

Double M 11/08 That is impressive that you bowl even with that condition. I just made my high school team, and there is a guy who trembles. Turns out he had a condition where he keep shaking and trembling. It doesn’t affect his bowling though. You don’t have to think yourself disabled, because you seem like an able guy. Good luck to you 👍🏽

I guess it’s hard to remember the situation twenty-five years later - but Petraglia was done. He was an old man in PBA terms. Looking at the winners that year, it’s a murderers row back then. Monacelli. Voss. Weber. Williams Jr.. And the guys I forgot about were special too.... Husted. Goebel had a MONSTER season. John Mazza. Randy Pedersen. Heck guys like D’Entremont and Dennis Horan were great too. That year. Those names, and fricking Johnny Petraglia - whose best season was almost twenty five years before this.... whose last win was almost fifteen years before this... old man Johnny flipping Petraglia rises from the ashes to do this?!? It’s bowling so it’s forgotten, but it’s one of the great sporting moments of my life.

This is one of...if not the best 300 bowled by anyone. In my opinion, the only "lucky" strike in the match was the 11th shot. Every other shot in that frame by Johnny petraglia was a masterpiece. If anyone knows who shot 12 masterpieces for 300, please tell me! This is the most skilled 300 I've seen yet.

I think in the postgame interview he mentioned having his kid's college tuition covered by that $100K prize!!
