You talk about clutch bowling in that final game from both bowlers. Earl was amazing in that he took no time on the approach. He knew what he wanted to do before stepping up on the lane. Milton had a very unusual style. Thanks for the video.
Very true; however, IIRC, Wunderlich has retroactively been awarded a PBA title for winning the ABC Masters in (I think it was) 1985, since he was a PBA national touring player at the time.
The saddest part in speaking of the prize money won. Is how little of it was actually available to the top players. The PBA should be ashamed of itself in the inability to get the money levels where they should be. The Talent that's been out there for many years has not been dealt a fair deal. The fact that it took many years for Earl Anthony to attain a million dollars in career earnings speaks for itself. I respect the bowlers, they are passionate for the game & do it anyway. Purely for the love of it. I know the stories of guys trying to make it early in their career.
Comments on Mike Durbin having been on the tour 16 years & only just now surpassed 500,000. ? PBA should be embarrassed. Today the money isn't any better. Not to mention inflation & along with the decline in the value of the dollar. Sad.
Andrew Phillips Genalo held off a valiant effort by Roger Haskell in the title game, winning, 215-189, after Haskell had defeated three opponents in an effort to win his first PBA Tour victory.

That 1983-84 graphic open is my favorite. Also, gotta love that Brass in the theme music, especially that part at about :44. I love to bowl.
used to bowl with tom milton for a long time at bcb...he moved his pro shop from brandon to seminole to be closer to home...those were the days
Yup, "Chase" by Giorgio Moroder, who with his songwriting partner Pete Bellotte wrote many of Donna Summer's disco-era hits
Mike Durbin should be in the hall of fame.
That's The Midnight express theme music
The first and title matches were exciting and very close
