1
00:00:15,590 --> 00:00:16,590
Sports.

2
00:00:17,630 --> 00:00:20,490
At their best, they evoke tradition.

3
00:00:21,650 --> 00:00:22,650
History.

4
00:00:23,470 --> 00:00:26,410
Legacies passed down through
generations.

5
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:30,870
Pageantry and glamour.

6
00:00:31,340 --> 00:00:35,660
And the notion that a single moment of
glory can last a lifetime.

7
00:00:36,740 --> 00:00:40,160
And then... Well,

8
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:43,920
there's bowling.

9
00:00:46,420 --> 00:00:49,680
Which embodies all those ideals as well.

10
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,380
Work it, work it. In its own way.

11
00:01:04,269 --> 00:01:06,650
Bowling began in ancient times.

12
00:01:08,930 --> 00:01:15,590
Seriously, Egyptian pharaohs bowled, as
did feudal

13
00:01:15,590 --> 00:01:16,590
lords in Britain.

14
00:01:18,810 --> 00:01:21,090
And then it found its way to America.

15
00:01:24,730 --> 00:01:27,410
It became a cultural pastime.

16
00:01:27,630 --> 00:01:30,810
You can learn to bowl and enjoy it too.

17
00:01:31,690 --> 00:01:35,570
and its popularity skyrocketed into the
modern media age.

18
00:01:36,190 --> 00:01:37,190
Let's bowl.

19
00:01:37,710 --> 00:01:44,390
From Al Bundy to Fred Flintstone,
Biggern McCracken to Balky, even Nick

20
00:01:44,390 --> 00:01:47,350
Cage in that one movie where he was a
family man.

21
00:01:48,090 --> 00:01:53,850
Celebrities and U .S. presidents, Ronald
McDonald and the Dude, all helped make

22
00:01:53,850 --> 00:01:56,670
bowling the unofficial sport of the
everyman.

23
00:01:57,710 --> 00:01:59,510
Or woman.

24
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:01,700
Or Superman.

25
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,340
Wolfman. Even Jesus himself.

26
00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:08,380
Nobody fucks with the Jesus.

27
00:02:10,940 --> 00:02:13,600
But it's the game's genuine athlete.

28
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:19,980
It's professionals who truly have the
balls to compete for glory.

29
00:02:40,300 --> 00:02:44,300
To be a professional bowler is the
height of athleticism.

30
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,580
Can I also get four chocolate chip
cookies?

31
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,280
Every year, the very best in the game
come together for a grueling four -month

32
00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:02,000
season to battle each other and a common
foe. Ten big fat pins just

33
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,300
asking for it.

34
00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:11,880
Only a select few get to live this life.

35
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,940
The glamorous life of a professional
bowler.

36
00:03:17,860 --> 00:03:21,060
Leaving the U .S. Open and sleeping on
the couch majority of the week.

37
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,280
This is home.

38
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,500
These boots are so soft.

39
00:03:24,820 --> 00:03:26,240
This is more than enough room.

40
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:28,380
Gotta have the air fryer. That thing's
important.

41
00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:30,260
You got open ketchup packets.

42
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,800
Do you live in your car? I guess.

43
00:03:32,140 --> 00:03:36,680
They travel thousands of miles, paying
their own way. Did a couple guys in

44
00:03:37,130 --> 00:03:39,890
Checkout process, dirty dishes in the
dishwasher.

45
00:03:40,670 --> 00:03:43,070
So you guys will sometimes sleep two in
a row?

46
00:03:43,470 --> 00:03:46,570
Yeah. All in the hope of some big
checks.

47
00:03:47,270 --> 00:03:49,190
Yes, there is Dr. Pepper available.

48
00:03:49,550 --> 00:03:51,930
Or at least enough to quit their day
jobs.

49
00:03:54,970 --> 00:03:57,630
Which only victory can deliver.

50
00:03:57,890 --> 00:04:03,570
These guys aren't paid salaries by the
PBA. The PBA only pays prize money. This

51
00:04:03,570 --> 00:04:04,570
is their livelihood.

52
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,800
This is where they put food on the table
for their families and pay their

53
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,680
electric. Made some money this week.

54
00:04:12,820 --> 00:04:14,380
And got some W -2s.

55
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,320
Too bad the money didn't equal the W
-2s.

56
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,420
5 ,000 years of bowling evolution has
led to this.

57
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,260
He's going to get fucking punched in the
face.

58
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,540
An unforgettable season. God damn it.

59
00:04:33,020 --> 00:04:34,020
Starring the men.

60
00:04:34,430 --> 00:04:38,230
who put the professional in professional
bowling.

61
00:04:40,130 --> 00:04:41,790
What if I throw it like that, dickface?

62
00:05:01,150 --> 00:05:02,290
Here, do you want a beef stick?

63
00:05:03,470 --> 00:05:07,250
From my sponsor? Hey, they're good.
They're protein. Like, I will not eat a

64
00:05:07,250 --> 00:05:07,949
stick. No?

65
00:05:07,950 --> 00:05:08,950
No.

66
00:05:09,210 --> 00:05:14,250
I turned pro when I was 15.

67
00:05:14,470 --> 00:05:18,290
You know, I had my PBA card. I was a
professional bowler, but that by no

68
00:05:18,290 --> 00:05:21,530
meant I was a profitable professional
bowler.

69
00:05:25,290 --> 00:05:27,870
My first job at 16 was working at
Wendy's.

70
00:05:28,210 --> 00:05:30,910
I managed Wendy's for about seven years.

71
00:05:35,690 --> 00:05:37,550
I won my first title in 2015.

72
00:05:39,750 --> 00:05:43,030
Back to work to following wheat. People
were like, hey, I've seen you on TV.

73
00:05:43,550 --> 00:05:44,529
That's awesome.

74
00:05:44,530 --> 00:05:48,430
Like, thank you. Here's your Frosty. We
have the taste of Wendy's cake.

75
00:05:49,130 --> 00:05:53,650
And when you're playing well, you kind
of have a signature move with the pick.

76
00:05:54,070 --> 00:05:58,130
Yeah. I mean, you've got to pick the
hair out. This would be the celebration

77
00:05:58,130 --> 00:06:02,150
lot more frantically, but I'm just
making sure my hair is looking good for

78
00:06:02,150 --> 00:06:03,150
camera.

79
00:06:04,110 --> 00:06:05,670
I guess I'm the Bob Ross of bowling.

80
00:06:06,050 --> 00:06:07,650
From all of us, happy painting.

81
00:06:10,730 --> 00:06:11,730
Hello?

82
00:06:11,850 --> 00:06:12,769
Oh, yeah.

83
00:06:12,770 --> 00:06:16,910
Sorry, I'm doing a documentary with
these guys, but let me put you on hold.

84
00:06:17,770 --> 00:06:19,110
I just love doing that.

85
00:06:19,770 --> 00:06:23,170
That's where I kissed it. You can kind
of see my lip print a little bit.

86
00:06:23,410 --> 00:06:25,110
I think your dog just took a shit.

87
00:06:26,530 --> 00:06:27,530
Jesus Christ.

88
00:06:28,310 --> 00:06:29,310
Really?

89
00:06:30,970 --> 00:06:32,910
Where would you rank the top five
bowlers?

90
00:06:33,210 --> 00:06:35,070
EJ Tackett's got to be number one.

91
00:06:36,010 --> 00:06:39,330
I'm sure I'm not the only bowler who's
tired of seeing him win, but hats off to

92
00:06:39,330 --> 00:06:43,990
EJ. Anthony Simonson is number two. I
would put myself third, fourth.

93
00:06:44,310 --> 00:06:48,190
Delmo, you know, he's been a little lax
the last couple years, but, you know,

94
00:06:48,210 --> 00:06:49,530
the man's got the records.

95
00:06:50,070 --> 00:06:52,890
And, you know, that fifth spot is really
up for grabs.

96
00:06:53,570 --> 00:06:54,570
Nasty, Mia.

97
00:06:56,030 --> 00:06:59,610
Mama's back to bowling, too. She bowled
yesterday for the first time in eight

98
00:06:59,610 --> 00:07:00,610
months.

99
00:07:01,469 --> 00:07:06,290
It's better if your significant other is
a bowler because you just understand

100
00:07:06,290 --> 00:07:10,390
the support level better. Be there for
them during the downs. Be there for them

101
00:07:10,390 --> 00:07:11,390
during the highs.

102
00:07:13,530 --> 00:07:18,130
When we're gone away from our families
for two straight months, that's just

103
00:07:18,130 --> 00:07:19,130
it gets tough.

104
00:07:20,670 --> 00:07:21,669
All right.

105
00:07:21,670 --> 00:07:22,589
Ready, girl?

106
00:07:22,590 --> 00:07:26,730
Yeah. Aubrey. She's been my life for the
last couple years.

107
00:07:27,730 --> 00:07:29,270
She's a ball of joy.

108
00:07:37,070 --> 00:07:38,070
Oh, okay.

109
00:07:38,650 --> 00:07:39,790
Look who came to bowl.

110
00:07:41,950 --> 00:07:44,570
I grew up in a bowling alley pretty much
all my life.

111
00:07:49,250 --> 00:07:51,690
My father had me on the lanes at a very
young age.

112
00:07:51,950 --> 00:07:53,710
What do you think of Dad? Is he going to
win the next match?

113
00:07:54,050 --> 00:07:55,050
Yeah.

114
00:07:55,870 --> 00:08:00,270
He started throwing the ball eight years
old. They always pick up my 15

115
00:08:00,270 --> 00:08:02,570
-pounder. But the ball was so heavy.

116
00:08:03,020 --> 00:08:06,920
He ended up putting his other hand on
the ball and learning how to bowl two

117
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:07,920
-handed.

118
00:08:08,220 --> 00:08:12,000
You know, traveling around with my dad.
He was one of the most popular bowlers

119
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,820
throughout the 80s and 90s. He was a
bowler of the bowlers. The crowd was his

120
00:08:16,820 --> 00:08:17,820
people.

121
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,940
My father, Guffy Truth, is an eight
-time titleist, 42 regional titles.

122
00:08:26,060 --> 00:08:30,260
The main thing on tour I was known for
was the pants.

123
00:08:32,940 --> 00:08:36,380
He had the crazy pants back in the 80s
and just his character.

124
00:08:36,659 --> 00:08:39,840
Some people know me because I hammer the
competition.

125
00:08:40,419 --> 00:08:42,380
Bowling was quite different compared to
now.

126
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,840
My dad liked to party back in the day.

127
00:08:48,700 --> 00:08:53,720
I spent as much time in the bar as I did
on the lanes, maybe more.

128
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,480
He always wanted to entertain fans.

129
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,100
You know, he was very outgoing.

130
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,820
He was a showman of showmen.

131
00:09:01,390 --> 00:09:02,670
You know, I learned a lot from him.

132
00:09:03,670 --> 00:09:05,410
Oh! Right there, baby!

133
00:09:20,090 --> 00:09:22,890
Hey, Joe. How you doing?

134
00:09:23,630 --> 00:09:24,630
I'm good.

135
00:09:25,210 --> 00:09:27,410
Oh, my gosh. This is the man I need to
see.

136
00:09:27,630 --> 00:09:28,630
This is my coach.

137
00:09:29,050 --> 00:09:32,290
You can kind of tell when someone has
the it factor, for lack of a better

138
00:09:32,550 --> 00:09:35,070
You can tell when someone has the it
factor.

139
00:09:35,450 --> 00:09:37,430
He's been a superstar since he was in
high school.

140
00:09:37,810 --> 00:09:38,830
I think it's up to you with this.

141
00:09:43,450 --> 00:09:45,330
So I did every sport when I was younger.

142
00:09:46,590 --> 00:09:50,570
Bowling really sucked because I was
like, whoa, I'm pretty good at this.

143
00:09:50,570 --> 00:09:51,570
keep trying it.

144
00:09:52,150 --> 00:09:55,390
Me and my dad, our first ever
tournament, we bowled together.

145
00:09:55,790 --> 00:09:56,790
This was cool.

146
00:09:57,110 --> 00:09:58,110
We won.

147
00:09:58,830 --> 00:10:00,890
Was that 9 at the time? 9 or 10 at the
time?

148
00:10:01,310 --> 00:10:04,170
He threw the 300 so much in practice.

149
00:10:04,850 --> 00:10:08,010
Once he fell off his 300 game, he would
want to start the game over again.

150
00:10:08,450 --> 00:10:10,110
He was as good at throwing 300s.

151
00:10:10,430 --> 00:10:13,890
We are two of the most competitive
people. We go at it in everything.

152
00:10:14,970 --> 00:10:16,290
Cameron, he's buddies with everybody.

153
00:10:16,790 --> 00:10:18,350
You know, you don't have to game face.

154
00:10:18,710 --> 00:10:21,150
But it works for him because he's very
charismatic.

155
00:10:21,910 --> 00:10:22,910
Why is this young man dead?

156
00:10:23,550 --> 00:10:27,750
Yeah, no, the game face, a bit Korean,
it's not a game face that Michael would

157
00:10:27,750 --> 00:10:29,030
enjoy or Tiger would enjoy.

158
00:10:30,010 --> 00:10:31,010
Okay.

159
00:10:37,270 --> 00:10:44,250
I used to practice all the time. Like,
after school, my dad

160
00:10:44,250 --> 00:10:46,370
would pick me up and he would take me
and my sister to go practice.

161
00:10:48,070 --> 00:10:50,730
I actually, like, shied away from
talking about bowling a lot.

162
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,400
When I was in high school. And people
knew that I chose bowling over

163
00:10:54,540 --> 00:10:58,080
So they were like, why'd you do that?
Like, that's not cool.

164
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,140
And I thought the same shit. I was like,
that's not cool at all. No.

165
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:05,140
But funny enough, it used to be a
bowling alley. Five minutes away from my

166
00:11:05,140 --> 00:11:06,139
house.

167
00:11:06,140 --> 00:11:07,140
I used to coach there.

168
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,920
So I made a deal with them. Like, they
didn't even have to pay me. They said,

169
00:11:09,940 --> 00:11:11,680
just give me free games and we're good.

170
00:11:12,180 --> 00:11:14,160
So I took advantage of that a lot.

171
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:15,560
They let me stay in there.

172
00:11:15,780 --> 00:11:16,960
They would give me the key sometimes.

173
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,760
I shouldn't say that legally. Sorry. You
know what? Cut that out.

174
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,580
This is my first PBA season.

175
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,740
Now I'm practicing for about six hours,
five, six hours a day.

176
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,640
I work really hard and hard work's
paying off.

177
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,020
So I'm like, you're here for a reason.
Like, show them why the fuck you're

178
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:38,100
Like, show them what you're about.

179
00:11:39,780 --> 00:11:41,140
Is it me? Let me burp. Sorry.

180
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,420
Oh, no, I don't have to burp. We're
good.

181
00:11:46,380 --> 00:11:47,380
First tournament.

182
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,380
We'll call it a coming out party.

183
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:55,680
The Pro Bowlers Association season
stretches four months from January to

184
00:11:55,680 --> 00:12:01,980
and features 19 tournaments, including
five majors that each offer their winner

185
00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:03,600
a $100 ,000 prize.

186
00:12:09,020 --> 00:12:13,460
Kyle, what are your predictions for the
2025 season for yourself?

187
00:12:14,460 --> 00:12:17,620
We pretty much got one prediction or one
goal, player of the year.

188
00:12:18,100 --> 00:12:19,800
I'm back from my spot. Sorry, EJ.

189
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,480
I come out on the tour to win
championships and win players of the

190
00:12:27,940 --> 00:12:29,560
That's why I'm here. It's the whole
point.

191
00:12:30,340 --> 00:12:34,620
My mindset is I have to go out full and
beat the best players in the world.

192
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,800
Leading up to the season, I was dealing
with kind of a back injury, but I

193
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,480
promised I want to win every event,
major, non -event.

194
00:12:42,810 --> 00:12:45,090
500 bucks, 50 ,000, and I want to win
them all.

195
00:12:47,950 --> 00:12:51,690
Coming from Australia to the U .S.,
like, jet lag is miserable.

196
00:12:52,270 --> 00:12:55,010
I'm exhausted from traveling, but it's
never an excuse.

197
00:12:55,610 --> 00:12:59,890
I very, very rarely am worried about
someone else winning.

198
00:13:03,130 --> 00:13:07,190
You know, excited for the tour to start,
but then, you know, get three, four

199
00:13:07,190 --> 00:13:09,690
weeks in, and it's like, oh, gosh, here
we go again.

200
00:13:10,570 --> 00:13:14,450
This is my second home. I probably drive
30 ,000 miles a year at least.

201
00:13:15,050 --> 00:13:18,490
A lot of guys drive because we have a
ton of bowling balls.

202
00:13:18,750 --> 00:13:21,270
About 21 in the back of the car right
now.

203
00:13:22,450 --> 00:13:26,430
Can't fly with that unless you're paying
$2 ,000 or $3 ,000 in baggage fees.

204
00:13:26,650 --> 00:13:30,550
That's just the grind. The grind's a
little different as a pro bowler. The

205
00:13:30,550 --> 00:13:34,870
major of the PBA season is the U .S.
Open in Indianapolis, Indiana.

206
00:13:35,350 --> 00:13:38,790
Home to David Letterman, the Indy 500,
and...

207
00:13:39,969 --> 00:13:42,470
Well, this year's Bowling U .S. Open.

208
00:13:45,090 --> 00:13:49,250
The U .S. Open being the first major, I
only live an hour and a half from Indy

209
00:13:49,250 --> 00:13:51,990
now, so I get to go with my family.

210
00:13:52,270 --> 00:13:53,530
That's a blessing in itself.

211
00:13:53,950 --> 00:13:57,170
That tournament means a lot, especially
winning it the year before.

212
00:14:01,710 --> 00:14:08,290
In 2024, the morning of the U .S. Open
show, I felt more peaceful than most

213
00:14:08,290 --> 00:14:09,290
finals.

214
00:14:10,030 --> 00:14:11,570
Had my family there with me.

215
00:14:13,510 --> 00:14:15,950
I'm an Aubrey. Pulled out an Afro wig.

216
00:14:17,670 --> 00:14:20,090
That moment is, you know, what we live
for, though.

217
00:14:20,350 --> 00:14:23,450
You know, on TV with the crowd cheering,
chanting your name.

218
00:14:25,610 --> 00:14:29,930
The other thing was that tournament,
like, I probably missed that cut six or

219
00:14:29,930 --> 00:14:31,790
seven times in a row in my career.

220
00:14:33,790 --> 00:14:37,050
Me and my father. I made the final in
1984.

221
00:14:38,290 --> 00:14:40,030
Gumpy troop must strike on this ball.

222
00:14:44,670 --> 00:14:46,650
They lost by 1 -10.

223
00:14:47,250 --> 00:14:49,090
So, you know, it felt like a chance at
redemption.

224
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:12,300
we did it

225
00:15:12,300 --> 00:15:25,200
those

226
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:32,180
emotions yeah you

227
00:15:32,180 --> 00:15:39,160
can't you can't stop that now i'm super
excited coming in as defending champion

228
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,220
I get to see my face on the banner.

229
00:15:42,540 --> 00:15:44,580
So confidence, all -time high.

230
00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:53,220
I have my go with the pro sign. I've got
to finish it one second because I

231
00:15:53,220 --> 00:15:57,500
can't see with the pencil line. It's
going to have a pro around the bowling

232
00:15:57,500 --> 00:16:02,440
ball. More than 100 of the world's top
bowlers will be vying for the U .S.

233
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,680
Open's coveted Big Eagle trophy.

234
00:16:07,790 --> 00:16:10,810
And that one size fits the winner green
jacket.

235
00:16:13,150 --> 00:16:17,370
Which is not exactly identical to the
master's green jacket.

236
00:16:18,230 --> 00:16:19,250
Or is it?

237
00:16:20,910 --> 00:16:21,910
Doesn't matter.

238
00:16:22,510 --> 00:16:26,810
The winner also will take home that big
$100 ,000 payday.

239
00:16:27,130 --> 00:16:30,690
Just a hair under what you get for
winning that other green jacket.

240
00:16:34,370 --> 00:16:39,360
But with that newfound fame and fortune,
They can also attract new sponsors,

241
00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:45,300
like bowling ball companies, or beef
jerky, or male

242
00:16:45,300 --> 00:16:47,980
-marketed hygienic products.

243
00:16:48,300 --> 00:16:49,300
How do you wipe?

244
00:16:50,700 --> 00:16:56,820
All in all, winning this tournament can
truly define a player's career forever.

245
00:16:58,380 --> 00:17:01,000
The U .S. Open is such a tough test.

246
00:17:01,700 --> 00:17:05,220
I believe this is probably the toughest
tournament on tour to win.

247
00:17:06,220 --> 00:17:07,220
It's a lot of games.

248
00:17:08,460 --> 00:17:10,720
There's a lot of frustration that
happens. Oh, no!

249
00:17:14,380 --> 00:17:15,380
It's hard.

250
00:17:16,859 --> 00:17:21,359
There are many challenges that you
encounter with the U .S. Open that's

251
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,500
different from any other tournament. You
know, like pulling on four different

252
00:17:24,500 --> 00:17:26,020
oil patterns throughout the event.

253
00:17:27,900 --> 00:17:28,900
That's right.

254
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,160
Oil.

255
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,180
Oil. Oil.

256
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:39,180
That geological mineral that fuels wars
and crashes economies is pro -bowling

257
00:17:39,180 --> 00:17:40,180
secret obstruction.

258
00:17:47,060 --> 00:17:53,960
Each lane in the alley is coated with
streaks of wood oil laid out

259
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,900
in an invisible, elaborate design.

260
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:04,220
A pattern that challenges the
competitors by changing ever so slightly

261
00:18:04,220 --> 00:18:06,380
time a ball rolls down the lane.

262
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,100
Not a good shot.

263
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,080
Don't see it out there.

264
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,820
So, though the pins never move, the path
to them does.

265
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:28,220
Constantly augmenting the degree of
difficulty and forever frustrating the

266
00:18:28,220 --> 00:18:29,220
bowlers.

267
00:18:36,769 --> 00:18:42,510
Cameron is a big confidence guy, but if
I had to rate him on actual ability to

268
00:18:42,510 --> 00:18:47,070
rap, it's like a 2 .4 out of 10. Out of
three. Cameron is this big vibes guy.

269
00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:50,730
He's not actually a good rapper, but he
has a good time.

270
00:18:51,210 --> 00:18:53,330
I'll put a 16 for y 'all right now. Give
me a beat.

271
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:56,760
Let's go.

272
00:18:57,140 --> 00:18:58,140
What?

273
00:18:59,340 --> 00:19:01,540
I'm in the car dealing with the crew.

274
00:19:01,820 --> 00:19:04,000
Me and Kevin, Kevin really do.

275
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:07,000
Really do?

276
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:09,440
You want to rock it with it?

277
00:19:10,120 --> 00:19:11,120
Okay.

278
00:19:11,580 --> 00:19:13,780
Professional bowling is a crazy job,
I'll tell you that.

279
00:19:14,660 --> 00:19:18,940
There's some events where you stay out
there for three weeks to a month, and if

280
00:19:18,940 --> 00:19:21,680
you don't make any money, you're not
just in the negative, you're in like a

281
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,820
hole. It's going to take a while for you
to recover from.

282
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:25,600
To bet on yourself.

283
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,440
We are at the house, B andB, basically.

284
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:30,200
For the guys, for the geese.

285
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,760
Y 'all about to meet all the cats.

286
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,320
You room with a couple bowlers, save a
little bit of cost.

287
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,840
You got it?

288
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,100
Yeah, I forgot it already.

289
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:40,500
We have my boy Kevin Williams.

290
00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:43,600
He's really easy to get along with, so
I'm rooming with him.

291
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,180
When it comes to the game, he's really
intelligent, so it's good to just have

292
00:19:47,180 --> 00:19:48,180
somebody in my corner.

293
00:19:48,580 --> 00:19:51,100
I'm healthy now. This is comfortable.

294
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:52,379
Whose blanket is this?

295
00:19:52,380 --> 00:19:53,380
I'm over you.

296
00:19:53,980 --> 00:19:55,060
Get out of my Airbnb.

297
00:19:55,380 --> 00:19:56,380
Whose blanket is this?

298
00:19:56,980 --> 00:19:57,980
Kevin.

299
00:19:58,640 --> 00:19:59,960
He's also a professional rapper.

300
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:12,600
Whenever guys

301
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,560
make telecasts, they usually ask for
like two or three songs to play when

302
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,600
strike, whatever to kind of kill some of
the dead noise.

303
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,740
And I had like 25 guys as like strike
songs.

304
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,320
I made one with Kyle, and we did, like,
the Pick It Out song.

305
00:20:27,580 --> 00:20:29,660
Damn, son, where'd you find this?

306
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,380
I've never heard this. You've never seen
this?

307
00:20:33,340 --> 00:20:35,040
It's a full music video.

308
00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:40,220
Pick it out, pick it out, pick it out,
pick it out, pick it out.

309
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,640
Switch it up?

310
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,080
In the middle?

311
00:20:45,770 --> 00:20:47,370
This is going to be crazy.

312
00:20:49,630 --> 00:20:54,410
Is that ketchup and mustard? Uh -huh.
Too much sauce. You get it?

313
00:20:56,850 --> 00:21:00,650
This is when you started making all the
telecasts and you were getting big and

314
00:21:00,650 --> 00:21:03,210
whatever. And it was fun to do.

315
00:21:05,490 --> 00:21:06,490
You want a water?

316
00:21:07,990 --> 00:21:10,530
Yeah. There's a faucet right there.
Okay.

317
00:21:11,010 --> 00:21:12,010
Fuck you asked for.

318
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:21,280
Hey, that liquid IV, oh my god, were you
drinking? No, dude, I just like to be

319
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,920
hydrated. Try to get the sponsorship.

320
00:21:23,180 --> 00:21:24,159
Lock in.

321
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,720
Blue Chew, hit me up. No, not Blue Chew.

322
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:33,080
I actively tell the PBA and Fox that
Blue Chew should be a sponsor for the

323
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:34,759
What is it?

324
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,080
Blue Chew, the dick pill.

325
00:21:36,860 --> 00:21:40,440
I think it would be a hit in the bowling
community. You've got to think it's a

326
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,400
bunch of old, grumpy men who...

327
00:21:48,430 --> 00:21:50,230
Think hard, be hard. Bluetooth.

328
00:21:50,510 --> 00:21:51,510
Bluetooth.

329
00:21:51,890 --> 00:21:52,890
That's hard.

330
00:21:53,910 --> 00:21:54,910
Like that.

331
00:21:56,010 --> 00:21:57,050
What the fuck?

332
00:21:59,050 --> 00:22:01,930
All right, from hipster to bowler. The
double life.

333
00:22:02,450 --> 00:22:06,650
From a cool guy in a cropped shirt to a
damn bowler.

334
00:22:15,690 --> 00:22:18,790
Day three of the Open determines who
makes the cut.

335
00:22:19,450 --> 00:22:24,790
Every pin knocked down over the past
three days is added up, and only the top

336
00:22:24,790 --> 00:22:25,790
move on.

337
00:22:27,990 --> 00:22:30,130
It's me versus the pigs. That's what you
always got to do.

338
00:22:31,990 --> 00:22:36,970
All right,

339
00:22:38,030 --> 00:22:40,810
all right, I'm starting to strike. I'm
starting to pop it like I'm talking

340
00:22:43,750 --> 00:22:44,910
Now I'm in my sweet spot.

341
00:22:45,170 --> 00:22:46,170
Everything felt right.

342
00:22:46,650 --> 00:22:47,970
You're a bad dude, man. Sometimes.

343
00:22:48,250 --> 00:22:49,250
You're a bad dude.

344
00:22:49,590 --> 00:22:50,590
Y 'all watching me.

345
00:22:53,210 --> 00:22:54,210
Somebody's excited.

346
00:22:54,290 --> 00:22:55,290
Oh, man.

347
00:22:55,590 --> 00:22:58,770
Literally, when I tell you block of my
life, block of my life.

348
00:22:59,250 --> 00:23:02,450
You know, let's look. You're going to
make this cut, okay? I know you said

349
00:23:02,450 --> 00:23:06,170
on wood, but you got enough score. You
got enough wood. You can breathe easy.

350
00:23:06,230 --> 00:23:07,230
You made this cut.

351
00:23:08,030 --> 00:23:11,650
I'm at a loss for words right now. At
the beginning of today, I started in

352
00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:15,240
By the end of today, I'm in the top ten.

353
00:23:16,300 --> 00:23:19,740
We got more work to do, so we're going
to celebrate this for the next 20

354
00:23:19,740 --> 00:23:21,460
and back to work tomorrow.

355
00:23:21,820 --> 00:23:22,820
Great ball. Thank you, sir.

356
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,279
Appreciate it.

357
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,280
Thank you, guys.

358
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:27,360
Bye, guys.

359
00:23:27,420 --> 00:23:31,720
We still got our name in that hat for
that green jacket, which is what we're

360
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:32,720
going for.

361
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:37,520
Even though the day's bowling isn't
finished, Cam already qualified in the

362
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:38,520
of 24.

363
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:39,880
Thank you, Mama.

364
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:45,420
Meanwhile, Kyle Troop, the reigning
champ, needs a solid final game to make

365
00:23:45,420 --> 00:23:46,420
cut.

366
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:56,480
Hit a couple rough

367
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,620
games early.

368
00:23:58,020 --> 00:24:00,340
It was mentally a roller coaster.

369
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,880
The ability to perform under pressure is
essential for any bowler.

370
00:24:13,500 --> 00:24:16,500
Kyle has his own strategy for staying
locked in.

371
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,300
I do love Sudoku.

372
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:23,860
That was the trick. My mental game was
calm and relaxed.

373
00:24:24,460 --> 00:24:29,060
So when he doesn't use his phone,
doesn't worry about who's bowling around

374
00:24:29,060 --> 00:24:30,460
and what they're bowling, he does fine.

375
00:24:31,380 --> 00:24:34,480
I was comfortable. I knew how the oil
patterns from the lanes were

376
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:35,480
transitioning.

377
00:24:38,860 --> 00:24:40,340
Go to the last game.

378
00:24:41,500 --> 00:24:42,700
I knew I was going to be close.

379
00:24:57,580 --> 00:25:03,740
I noticed there's a lot of cheering
going on somewhere else. Somebody else

380
00:25:03,740 --> 00:25:04,740
making a run.

381
00:25:09,130 --> 00:25:10,610
I can't help but know the math.

382
00:25:20,230 --> 00:25:21,690
Going home tomorrow, girl.

383
00:25:25,790 --> 00:25:27,230
I missed the cut by two pins.

384
00:25:29,250 --> 00:25:32,390
Just lack of focus early, lack of being
calm.

385
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,380
Probably could have got two pins
somewhere.

386
00:25:44,980 --> 00:25:48,900
You can always find two pins just about
anywhere after 24 games.

387
00:26:00,140 --> 00:26:02,160
Yeah, well, I didn't make the cut.

388
00:26:03,340 --> 00:26:04,860
I just found two pins.

389
00:26:41,450 --> 00:26:46,350
Before you get worried you won't see
Kyle again this season, relax.

390
00:26:47,690 --> 00:26:51,150
Remember, there are four more major
events on the season.

391
00:26:52,150 --> 00:26:55,190
Events that will push all of them to the
limit.

392
00:26:56,250 --> 00:26:58,230
Damn it. Oh, come on, man.

393
00:26:58,490 --> 00:27:00,070
I'm burning booty to the ground.

394
00:27:01,190 --> 00:27:02,570
Fuck you. Fuck!

395
00:27:02,970 --> 00:27:04,110
Shove your camera up your ass.

396
00:27:04,390 --> 00:27:09,550
But as far as the U .S. Open goes, the
final round is set to be an all -out...

397
00:27:09,820 --> 00:27:12,520
I don't trust him one fucking bit. In
knocking wars.

398
00:27:14,220 --> 00:27:15,400
For the big check.
