| ALTA, Iowa (AP) -- A 78-year-old legally blind man from northwest Iowa has bowled a perfect game. Alta resident Dale Davis nailed 12 consecutive strikes for a 300 score Saturday night during league play. Davis has limited peripheral vision but can't see straight ahead. Century Lanes owner Clem Ledoux said Thursday that Davis' game didn't draw much attention until he reached 10 strikes. That's when folks poured out of the bar to watch his final two shots. Ledoux said Davis threw a "Brooklyn," where a right-hander strikes the left side of the head pin, for his final strike. The feat brought wild cheers from Davis' fellow bowlers and onlookers. It's the first 300 Ledoux could recall at the alley since he took over in 1984. |
