Watched this live as a kid and it was awesome seeing Palmer win,especially against juvenile/sore loser ass Holman. Fallgren was right there with Chris and Bo all through the best years of ABCs professional bowling as a scorekeeper and seeing everyone win big $ and go onto glory. You'd have to he dead to not feel happy for this guy.
What a wild sequence....Fallgren misses the head pin twice, opens, blows huge lead, huge storm rages so hard outside you can hear it on TV and Diles even mentions it, Zikes needs a strike, buries it..tapped solid 8......😖
Of course. He's a good guy when everything is going HIS way. Its how you are when someone is beating you is what important and really shows your personality. He obviously failed

Spoiler Alert. Watch all matches before you read the comments.

Marshall predictably gracious in defeat.

8:11 Bo knows. Oops, there goes another one
the second and title matches were exciting and very close
Palmer Fallgren climbs the ladder as he prevails when Marshall Holman left the 2 4 5 on his first shot in the 10th frame to win the True Value Open
Andrew Phillips spoiler buttmunch
Who were the best bowlers during this era? Anthony?Petraglia?
chuck sailliez Anthony, Roth, Petraglia
Plenty of backhanded comments by Dave Diles, as usual.
yes.....he makes many awkward and ignorant comments........he really never learned much about bowling, did he.
Patrick Burns if Dave Diles knew anything about sports he would have been covering the Olympics
DILES ALSO WAS A BIGOT PLUS backhanded compliments + I loved when he messed up Stefanich’s rug after his 300 in 1974!! Steffi was so pissed!!
George Pappas had no luck at all.
DILES, the bottom of the barrel Las far as announcers go. They should have gotten Keith Jackson or Al Michaels
