Dear Bowling Friends,
The Elks Lodge is running their semi-annual tournament at Homefield Bowl on Friday, November 12th @ 10:30pm. Check in time is 9pm. This is a scratch event, but all skill levels usually participate.
Teams consist of 4 men, women or mixed. Prizes will be awarded in both the men's and women's divisions. Mixed teams are in the men's division.
The entry fee for each team is $100. Yes, that's correct, a very affordable $25 per bowler. The prizes are not huge, since this is a benefit for the lodge, but there will be plenty of scratch brackets, high game pots and an eliminator.
Put a team together and let's have some fun.

BigBowler:
Perhaps you were absent the day you should have been taught about the benefits of charity. This is a benefit for the Elks Lodge. The Elks are an organization that exists solely for the benefit of others.
I wanted everyone to understand that although there were cash prizes, (top three teams in each division) that this tournament was to support the lodge.
There are bowl-a-thons for several charitable organizations. Consider this one of them. Now make your own decision. If a $25 donation to a charitable organization is more than you can afford, simply don't come. If you want to learn something about brotherhood and the joys of giving, come to Homefield Bowl on Friday night.

Hey Sue you did say it's $25 to bowl but you also stated that there will be SCARTCH BRACKETS pots eliminator so who is going to be bowling for fun you STATED THAT THIS WAS A FUN TOURNAMENT AND A CHARITABLE so my question to you was who wants to bowl for fun you never did answer?

BigBowler:
Did your mother's obstetrician drop you on your head? I have already stated that this is a benefit for the Elks Lodge. The prizes are small because the tournament benefits the lodge. In the past this tournament has had up to twenty six teams bowling. Other lodges come to support it. Bowlers from all skill levels participate.
Aside from the entry fee there are optional pots, brackets and an eliminator. Therefore, it is possible to go home with a nice payday even if the prizes are small.
A portion of the proceeds from the brackets are also donated to the lodge.
Do you realize that every time you post something on this website, you prove to everyone how stupid you really are.

I post tournaments for the benefit of those who want the information. The Elks Lodge Tournament is run by the Elks Lodge. This is not my tournament. I am simply letting people know where and when.
As far as bowlers not coming to the tournaments that I do run, they are welcome to come or stay away. It is strictly their own choice to make. YOU are not welcome regardless of your decision. I prefer having bowlers of some intelligence and talent.

BigBowler, let me put it this way. I don't even know who Sue is, but I can tell you one thing. She sure is making you look silly!

Hey create area, if you knew this woman you would say sh*t about her also if you had saw all the things i said on here like she took a tournament away from Chris & Mike that's number 1 she use to have great turn outs she had alot of big names going to her tournaments why do you think they stopped cause they knew she was a joke a piece of sh*t she did things behind peoples back i even heard that she let's people get in the brackets when they are in the 4th frame of bowling i thought you were supposed to give your bracket money before you started practice? not when the guy has the first 4 she is a waste of time nobody likes her the only reason why she still gets turn outs is because she runs the handicap tournaments if she was only running scratch she would get nothing she runs more handicap ones then scratch cause she knows that her pocket will get hurt if she only ran scratch so she is the one thats making herself look like an idiot

Once again, the adage "you give an idiot enough rope, they hang themselves," proves to be the truth.

Hey Sue everyone knows you are a fake so stop trying to prove that you are not your tournaments will never go anywhere so and again you really did not give me a good answer on why the big names don't go to your tournaments anymore? and tell the truth here you do let people go in the brackets while they are in the 4th frame don't bull sh*t anyone

Don't expect a response. My reputation speaks for itself and I don't owe anyone explanations. Least of all a no talent, ignorant, waste of human sperm, such as yourself.

Hey Sue, yeah your reputation is REAL good that's why you don't get the bowlers and that's why you can't answer the question your a FAKE everyone knows that so don't expect great turn outs bowlers know about the sh*t you pull so your tournaments is pretty much OVER

I vote that "small" bowler be banished to the trash talk basement.
Enough is enough.

This is to Sue and Harry, I don't know who Big bowler is but he does have some points for one thing I know Mike & Chris very well and she told Big bowler that Mike & Chris gave her the tournament in Fiesta that is wrong she took that another thing is that i bowled in the westchester invtl 8 and i use to give her money for the brackets before the league started and when we were in the 3rd frame she would say last call for brackets and pots now she is a very nice woman but all the people that don't know her should watch on backing her i'm not backing Big bowler but he does have some points and for the people that do know her they know what i'm saying is correct i use to bowl in Chris & Mike's tournaments and again when the tournament started she would be saying last call for brackets and pots and that's not good i don't know what she does with her tournaments now cause i stoped going and i told a couple of guys that use to go to her tournaments to stop also cause of that stuff that she pulls plus the low entries that she was getting so it was being a waste of time to go but the point is she is not that honest so for all the people that are saying get rid of this person and that she is not that great of a person

Hook the Lane: If you bowled in the Westchester Invitational you would know that the bracket desk was on the mid level of White Plains Lanes. All bowlers were on the top or bottom floors. Last call for brackets was announced right after practice and bowlers came to the desk. It was impossible to see any scores from the vantage point of the bracket desk so if you are implying that there was any wrongdoing, think again.
Secondly, since you know Mike and Chris so well, ask them if I have repeatedly asked them if they wanted to run the Fiesta tournament.
If you have any other concerns or questions, why don't you air them instead of posting your inuendoes.

Sue, I know it was mid level right near the bathrooms near the snack bar yes i know where you were at i use to give you money for brackets and what i'm saying is that when they called last call it was almost about the 3rd frame so there was so many times i seen people not going to say there names but let's say they went in 5 after they open with the first 3 they come down and go in another 5 i have seen it happen i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one who has seen it happen and that's the truth listen i did not come on here to fight with you i know that you are not going to say yes that is true but it has happened it happened at the tournament that Chris & Mike was running i have seen it and you let them in

I didn't respond to fight with you, either. You are entitled to your opinion and your perception. I just wanted all the facts publicized.

Hey hookthelane, It's about time someone else knew what i was talking about she is a cheat and a bunch of bull sh*t and it's about time that everyone knew that she likes to take tournaments that people had just because Chris & Mike was getting a great turn out she thought she could get the same and she was wrong she will never get what those 2 were getting and i knew about the brackets she likes putting people in when there are in the 4th frame she's a joke

Again, I don't know anyone in this thread, but I find some of these complaints weak. Even if Sue let someone in after 3 frames; and I am not saying she did, who cares. Most guys that would purposely wait to see how they did after 3 frames before going into brackets can't be very good.

Hey Create Area, You are missing the point hypothetically speaking you are in 10 brackets and the guy who always goes in did not feel like it knowing that he has until the 3rd frame of league and now has 3 strikes he goes to the bracket table and says put me in all now you have him in 6 out of 10 you can not say that you would be heated if he beat you and that's what she does let people in that's not right that's the point.
Second you really don't know of her and what she did alot of people said the same thing when these two guy's Chris & Mike were running the tournament at Fiesta they were doing everything brackets pots taking care of the entry fee and here she comes butting her way in cause she wants in on everything she is very greedy she saw the entries that Chris & Mike were getting and once they stoped running them here she comes mean while she had her own tournaments that she was running and not getting great turn outs but she saw the both of them get the turn outs and right away i want in i mean Chris & Mike were getting between 56 and 58 bowlers a month now she runs the tournament there and she barely gets 20 entries don't that tell you anything i even heard at Fiesta that people won't bowl in her tournament if Chris & Mike don't run it so that says alot she is even running them the same night that they were running them and she still can't get nothing she says all the sh*t on here how great she is and her reputation is great thats bull sh*t and there is a good enough reason Create Area
To quote something that you said Create Area it's not just one person she let's in it's a few like you went in 10 you open with the first 3 you go back to the bracket table and say to Sue put me in another 10 is that fair?? not really even hookthelane knows she is full of sh*t

BigBowler, I see your point, however, when I go into brackets I don't run up after every game to see who I am matched up against. I simply wait until the end of the night to see how I did. I can only control how I bowl, not how others bowl. The front 3 means nothing under today's high scoring conditions.

Hey BigBowler, we can take it easy on calling her names i think that you made your point nice and clear and i made my point also here about her but she is a very nice woman just a couple of things that she has to work on that's all like the brackets letting people in after pratice,don't step on peoples toes alot of the bowlers that know her they know that she is shady but what can you do.

On behalf of the Elk's Lodge, I extend my thanks to all who participated. We had 17 teams, and had big fun until the wee hours of the morning. Congrats to the winners. I am sure there are some hangovers today!

SueS,
I enjoyed myself during the tournament. First time returning to tournament action in years (i.e. knee surgery). It was a last minute decision as I had just finished bowling at Bowlerland. You're right, I didn't get in til 4 am! ... LOL
My team placed 5th if I'm not mistaken

I am so glad you had a good time. The Elks Lodge does this twice a year. The next one is in July. I would be happy to see you again. In the meantime, there are lots of handicap tournaments to choose from. I have a no-tap this Saturday at Homefield. I hope to see you there. Step up and let me know who you are.

I just came across this thread. I'm a recent member and I don't know anyone from anyone. But after reading all this trash, SueS strikes me as an intelligent woman who's trying to do some good for less fortunate people in this world, while some other people sound like schmucks. It says in the beginning that this web site is for people who want to discuss action bowling in a "dignified, respectful way." I noticed there is a "trash talk basement." Why don't you all save the trash talk for there.
