Troy Walker was on the verge of notching a perfect game at Houston's Luci Bonneau Doubles charity event this weekend, but his final bowl never hit the pins. A mechanical error reset the lane and the rack dropped, blocking off the pins. Walker finished with a score of 297 after he only got seven pins after being allowed a redo. Shockingly, Walker said that he "absolutely" thought the first ball had a better shot at striking than the second ball. Of course it did, Troy. Of course it did.
