Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. How many pins do you have to knock down to bowl a 300 game?

Answer: 120

I have never bowled a 300 game and I don't think I will for a long time. You need 12 strikes to do it.

2. If you are a right handed bowler and you are going to take a four step approach, which foot are you going to start with?

Answer: Right

When I play bowling I actually use a 5 step approach. I use it because I am shorter than the other bowlers.

3. Which one of these companies does not make bowling balls?

Answer: Spin

Spin was not a bowling ball company. I don't even know a company outside of bowling called Spin.
AMF Bowling merged with Strike Hldings LC in 2013

4. Which of these countries has the most bowling participants?

Answer: China

In China, in the average bowling alley they have about 120 lanes! That is a lot of lanes!

5. If you're a right handed bowler and you throw the ball left of the head-pin, what is it called?

Answer: Brooklyn

In the old days, when bowling began, the first bowling alley was in New York. If you were right handed and you threw the ball left of the head-pin, you would throw the ball towards Brooklyn. That's why we say 'Hey, you threw the ball Brooklyn'.
