1994 PBA General Tire Tournament of Champions Entire Telecast 

I remember that Gold Rhino Pro ball giving me fits back in the day. I worked in a pro shop and later owned one and that was one of the most frustrating balls I ever worked on. It took months for us to figure out that we needed to sand off the factory finish and then reapply whatever was needed. Out of the box the ball hooked off the lane when it hit dry and went perfectly straight in oil. We used to hide the ball from a guy who had one on our team lol. And at 20:14 he mentions my home town, Windsor, Ontario as the place where the lowest score by two opponents in a championship round took place lol.

The lesson from this tournament: *make your spares*. It's been a high strike volume game over the past 25-30 years or so but you have got to fill those frames.

I sentimentally remember! I was still 15, was less than 8 weeks away from turning 16 that tough year!

Norm has a cute wife. Never saw a crazier tournament.

as frank sanata once sang about Riviera Lanes in Fairlawn, Ohio hosting the TOC there's used to be a ballpark

NORM DUKE'S 2-7-8 SPLIT CONVERSION FOR THE SPARE 59:41 AND ERIC FORKEL'S GUTTERBALL 1:03:00

The tips they offered were so good.

PDW shooting a 159, Randy missing a 5 pin.... wtf??!

Always nice to see little Petey struggle.

Jaros looks like Ned Flanders

I always thought of Jaros as a poor man's Ozio.

Norm Duke puts a tremendous amount of roll on the ball.

I'm leaving too many comments here I know...but on another video with Norm Duke, I mentioned that I thought it was bad that he always seemed to lose his balance on spare shots. Almost every single time, he stands up at the line and steps with his right foot over to the right...and there ya go, this time it cost him a foul. Didn't cost him the match but it's still a valid point.

the first, second, and semi final matches were exciting and close

I've watched this video a couple of times now and I am more positive than ever that if any of these guys had just grabbed a urethane ball (Jaros was using a Black Rhino urethane as his spare ball) I would bet they could have grinded out 200-210's and won.

Looked like Randy was crying at the end of the semifinal.

32:56

there were a lot of open frames in the general tire tournament of champions

This tourney goes back to Riviera this Sunday...I kind of hope ESPN embarrasses Randy with this (29:30).

Looks like PDW’s man bun wasn’t a lucky charm!

29:30

Does Pete get a new wife for each major?

29:34 randy Pederson misses the easiest spare in the pba

norm duke was in the driver's seat to win the general tire tournament of champions

56:47 Mentioned his girlfriend rather than his fiance.

Duke looked like he was on some bad Vole back in the 90’s’n He & Voss were so Coked up in the 80’s & 90’s it isn’t funny!! Hop Heads!! 😂😂😂😂😂

Duke was on some really good Cocaine here & all throughout the 80’s & the 90’s!’ He was the biggest Coke Head on the PBA Tour! He made Pete Weber look like a choirboy!! 😂😂😂😂😂

the first match was very low scoring
