its hilarious to me that the camera man that was supposed to be covering the pins was pointing at lane 4, a lane they did not use in the previous show, for the first box. what a dummy

@seanbenoit7781 pretty sure the cable 5 and eastlink bowling shows from Brunswick lanes used the nscc college students as volunteer hours towards their apprenticeships. Some stayed on year after year as volunteers because they loved helping make the show

@@justinwood6407 Don't forget that between 1961 and 1996, WHDH had their weekly "Candlepin Bowling with Don Gillis" where New England's top Bowlers competed for large prize money. Should point out that Don Gillis himself is a Nova Scotian as he's originally from Antigonish before moving to Massachusetts when he was a kid. It might explain why his accent sounded much different than typical American or New England counterparts. If you wondered how "Candlepin Bowling with Don Gillis" was able to pay out large prize money with minimal need for sponsors, including $50 bonus money if you got three marks in a row with an extra $50 for each consecutive mark thereafter, and $1,000 for Triple Strikes, they received that revenue through qualifier entry fees. Top qualifier earned a right to bowl against the champion on that show a week later. These major professional Candlepin Bowling shows was a reason why they had high quality Bowlers.

What an amazing "Spread Eagle Spare" from Frank Robichaud Sr. at 7:43. If he was on "Candlepin Bowling - Stars and Strikes" or "Candlepin Bowling with Don Gillis", he would have gave Tom Olszta, Joe Ashline, or Paul Berger a run for their money.

Sean, this is a really awesome find that you brought here to KZfaq. I love the fact that ATV's 'Number 7' era of candlepin bowling is now here, and I thank you for uploading this! =) But with that thanks, comes a question. In this clip, there was a commercial talking about the 1987 Christmas Daddies telethon having ended by this point, and it led me to think about trying to track down a specific date this was broadcast. It's prompted me to ask the following 2 questions....A] was this the only thing that was on the tape you found, and B] if not, do you know of anything else that would have been on it? In any event, thanks for reading my post/queries.
