New Trophy!

On Friday Tyler participated in a charity-fund raiser bowling tournament. There were over 50 guys who participated and some of them were pretty amazing. Right off the bat we could pick out the guy that was going to be the one to beat, but Tyler wasn't too far behind him in scores. Sure enough, in the third round of games Tyler had to play this guy. He lost by about three points (196 to 199 was the final score) which meant that he had to go to the loser's bracket. He beat everyone in his path and made it to the top two where he had to play the same guy for the championship. Everyone that Tyler had beat on the way was there at the end to cheer him on (which tells you something about his attitude) plus others that were just excited to see who would win. By this point Tyler was on his eighth game while the other guy was on his fifth. It was a really close game and a lot of fun to watch, especially since the crowd was mostly cheering for Tyler. Unfortunately one of Tyler's throws, that looked like it was going to be a strike, didn't manage to get all ten pins and one was left standing. It wasn't much but it was enough to give the other guy the opening he needed the final score was 166 to 178. It was okay though, Tyler still got second overall, he got a trophy, some gift certificates, a T-shirt, his name on the wall and a bunch of fans, not to mention that he had a great time, and got a lot of bowling in. These were his scores for the eight games he bowled: 183 191 196 190 166 193 235 166 Pretty amazing isn't it! especially that 235! This is him with his trophy.
