WOW!!!! So glad to view candlepin bowling classics. George Raymond's 4 bagger was against Oltzka, my mom also commented 'Oltzka sh--- his pants'. Jim Barber rolled a 191 that string. Started watching Saturday bowling since 1970.
@@kylebertulli4435 yes you're correct Tom O set just about every record on the show. I believe he collected 22 wins in a row,not to mention 4 YP/ TV Championships. Larry 930
Interestingly enough, in Paul Berger's 500 string back in 1992, he didn't have 4 strikes in a row in that third string where he bowled a 193, but he did get five strikes in that game total (1st, 5th, 7th, 8th and 10th boxes) and came close to getting six strikes in a row (9 pins in the first ball of the 6th box, 8 pins in the first ball of the 9th box were what prevented it)
Jeff Atkins was perfect in the 1-2 pocket on all 4. It’s the best way for a righty to strike, in my opinion, but it increases the odds of punching out too. Great video.
I remember seeing the show that George Raymond was on. I must have watched it with my grandparents who always had bowling on. Like so many others here my first thought was "Poor Charlie Jutras!"

Tremendous compilation! Thanks for uploading. I think Jim Barber came closest to five in a row by knocking down 7 on the first ball of his 5th attempt.
I was going to ask this, figuring nobody on here knew for certain. Thank you for the answer, from 5 years in the past! I read that Stasia Czernicki once started a string with 5 straight strikes. I wonder if that was televised or just in a regular string somewhere. The co-record-holders with 245's I assume one of those had a 5-bagger in there but maybe not?
Ralph Semb started off his 245 with a seven-bagger, while co-record holder Chris Sargent had a 6-bagger in frames 2 thru 7. Incidentally, Ralph incorrectly states that he's the only candlepin bowler to have a perfect 150 half. Brian Fuller Jr's high single of 224 began with 6 consecutive strikes..
This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "what is the end of a bowling lane called?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Piylivern Remarkable Predominance - (search on google ) ? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to up your bowling game quickly without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my buddy got cool success with it.
Interesting facts on these bowlers who made this historic feat! George Raymond and Jim Barber did this at Sammy White's Brighton Bowl. George did his 4 in a row in the 1st game of 3. Jim had his done in Game 2 of 3. Dick O'Connell, Jeff Atkins, Tom Olszta, and Jack Saniuk made it at Fairway Sports in Natick, Mass. Dick was done in Game 1 of 3, Jeff did it in Game 2 of 3, Tom's 1st game of 3 he did it in, and Jack made his on the FINAL game of his 3 string match. IRONIC THAT Jack got his 1st strike in frame #6, then sat down, got the next 2, sat down again and got his 4th in frame #9. All the others did it 2 strikes in a row then sat down, and got the next 2 in a row after that!
WOW!!!!!! i think i saw almost every show over the years and even some of these matches but i just don't remember the 4 strikes in a row. guess i'm gettin old but it is fantastic.
A 300 candlepin game is possible in any of professional bowling tournaments. It can happen soon for them. For amateurs, it will take a long, longer time.
The O'Connell one has the full match on here and I believe he finished with a 193. Not sure on the other 5 but I think the all time high on the Channel 5 show was 197 by Ed Czernicki.
@@Rubberneck1965I believe that Ed Czernicki string was the only time anyone had 11 marks in a string on this show, as he filled the 10th box with a strike. Rosario Lecchiara was the only other to get 10 marks, back when the show was at the Kenmore Bowladrome, I believe.
I remember my mom whos watched Don Gillis bowling since the very beginning,watching George bowling 4 strikes in a row,never forget she quoted "Oh my goodness I think Tom O just shit his pants'
@@jimhallal2513 Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's not actually any legitimate thing people actually do , it's like a government conspiracy or something, nobody actually plays that and enjoys it. But if it was real, it would be shit.

These guys made it look easy. It's incredibly hard to get ONE strike in candlepin bowling.
George is my father in law!! My husband was young and too busy in the arcade to actually see this happen. He heard all the commotion though! 😂
Did you bang him?

To Dick O'Connell and Tom Olstza!
@@johnnguyen270 - Interestingly, Olszta was on the wrong side of the first four-bagger rolled by George Raymond.

Well, not ironic, but certainly interesting! Also, Tom was the only one to accomplish this with a backdoor strike.

I remember watching this in the 80s being forced to watch it now I know where all the grandparents are
great upload
This marked the end of saturday morning cartoons. Time to go outside!
@@SimuLord Ha! I'd ride my bike one street over which was a dead end and played whiffle ball or tag football till dinner time. Simpler times 😔
The last two Geoge Raymond's strikes were hammers.
Tough enough to get ONE strike in this sport!
Not when you use a whole can of silicone on each lane.
Is this the voice of Don Gillis? A friend of my father’s at Channel 5 Boston.
Ashley C yes that was Don Gillis...who hosted this program for many many years.
Yes. He sadly died in 2008 though.
@@aarongondesen9619 He Was 85 Years Old
I'll never forget!
I wonder how many times this has happened that hasn’t been televised. A month ago I got 4 in a row in my last 4 frames to finish with a 170
Do you believe in miracles? YES!
What did Jeff Atkins roll? I seen 90 after 4 boxes and 2 bonus balls in the 5th and 6th frame
Imagine if someone got five strikes in a row. Don would’ve said “FIVE STRIKES IN A ROW!”
9:02 Don Gillis: Jack Saniuk, Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute, Piece Of Wood, Yes!! He has four strikes in a row in the same string!
9:01 message delivered
Poor Charlie Jutras. Four strikes in a row twice against him.
A 300 candlepin game is possible in any of professional bowling tournaments. It can happen soon for them. For amateurs, it will take a long, longer time.
No one will ever bowl a 300 game in candlepins. No one has even come close in 120 years.
245 was best done twice
It would have been nice to see the final scores of these four bowlers. Did any other them break 200?

Sammy White's Brighton Bowl, and before that, Wollaston Boulevard Bowladrome
R.I.P. Jack Saniuk
How did he pass ?
What happened?
@@larry930legend I'm sorry I don't know. I just heard he passed awhile back.

Jimmy B. How far down the lane is the LOB line? Happy Retirement JB
I believe Olszta made his 4 strikes in a row during his record winning streak of around 20 weeks or thereabouts...
10 pin bowling 300 game: WOOOOOOW
Candlestick Bowling Turkey: WOOOOOOW
Poor Charlie Jutras , he has the most 4 baggers thrown against him on video. I believe Richie Myrick got one on him as well.
I seem to remember Charlie Jutras did it, I must be mistaken.
What's the highest game ever?
245...accomplished twice, last time almost 10 years ago
@@vernonmcgraw6627 Unreal!! Thanks.
On the show, if I remember correctly, it was 193 by Paul Berger.
@@williamdunphy352 on another one of these videos, I think they said that Ed Czernicki, Stacia’s son, bowled a 199.
0:26 ok
Jutras had 2 peope throw 4 strikes against him (Olsta) (OConnel)
has anyone ever got 5 or 6 in a row, in candle pin bowling this kind of bowling?
yeah chris seargent had 6 when he bowled the record 245
i almost pulled this off once; i was only off by three strikes
