Revs300, Did you know that both Mark Roth and Earl Anthony are 2 of the best Bowlers that got inducted to the Pba Hall of Fame? Also, Keep up the good work on the uploads especially the Bowling Classics from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.
Mr. Batista was a very nice man. I bowled in a youth match with two PBA bowlers, and he gave me tremendous advice and encouragement. God bless him and prayers to his family.
Hey Mike, would you happen tp have the 1982 Cleveland Open? The gentleman that taught me to bowl when I was younger passed away recently, and that was the only telecast he made, and I cant find it anywhere. Regardless, thank you so much for this upload and have a great day!
@@robs531 Exactly. I miss him a lot, he went too soon. Would love to see the telecast that he was on or some footage of him bowling from back in the day.
@@surfinbird208 he was the best. I was working at a southern tier casino when he retired and was able to make it to his retirement party before I worked that night. Looking back I’m glad I made that trip.
It was great to see "Bo" Burton interview Dick Weber about Pete making his first telecast. Roth/Anthony showdown in the title match. Both players packing the pocket. Earl did get a great break to win it though. Great champion. Very professional. Roth too. I was really hoping Roth would win this one. Long Island was in his "backyard". He grew up in Brooklyn. His wife Jackie was there with him on Saturday. His ball driller, Bob Simonelli, was hopeful. Fond memories for me because I taped every single one of those winter telecasts. As always, excellent announcing from "Bo" Burton.😀
23:11 Bo mentions Greg Shields....hes the guy that was bangin his ex wife Cissy when they split for a bit (and got back together) and owed Bo thousands(im not sure if she loaned him Burton bucks or what when they were split)...so Bo gave him a 2 piece and got suspended by the PBA. lol...
Two of the all-time greats.....I'll take that era over any other.
The contestants bowled well in the 1980 PBA Long Island Open Complete ABC SHOW---Pete Weber Debut As well as...
Revs300, Do you have the Stepladder Finals of the 1980 Fair Lanes Open, and the 1985 Showboat Invitational?
I kid you not, Mike Ware has some of the best shows anywhere. I greatly appreciate it, too.
Your quite welcome
@@Revs300 100% fact!!!
“Susie told me to stay firm.” Good advice, in more ways than one! 😉
👍😛

Much appreciated for the comment
Garden City Bowl one of Long Island best that is not longer there. What a shame!! Earl Anthony could do no wrong there it was his house.
Dick Batista. I bowled a pro am with him in the late seventies not long after he had his heart transplant.

18:42 "look at the eyes on that kid." Diles picked that up immediately..the rest is history....
Very very unusual to see Roth playing the ditch.

@@surfinbird208 I searched hi and far for that telecast as I had wanted to put it on a DVD for him as a gift.

What were you watching, Bo didn't bowl 😂
@@josephambrose2852he said Bo interviewed Weber, but I didn’t see that either
What a titanic title match. I mean, you're talking 2 deities going nose to nose. Damn....an all timer for sure 👍
The giant coughing sound emanating from your television screen is Mark Roth choking in the 10th frame.

Six month PBA suspension, for sure
