The best match I ever saw
was held at Rainbow lanes in Brooklyn NY, 1976, Johnny Petraglia and Mark Roth vs Cliffie Bergman and Jeff Kidda. Rainbow was Marks home alleys, Cliffie and Jeff lost three straight and their backer Bill Daley covered all bets. At this point Bill said the doubles match was over but Jeff would bowl Mark head to head and he'd cover the house. Mark said no, I couldn't believe it, but that's how much respect they had for Jeff Kidder. It was like a TV match, they closed the whole top floor, they bowled on the center lanes and the house was packed for this confrontation. Those were part of the great days of bowling.
