Rule #1 of bowling: let go of the damn ball.

Professional bowling is a fairly niche sport. While bowling used to be a booming business, today, scant few people belong to bowling leagues, and most people only visit a lane for company get-togethers or if they’ve run out of ideas for dates to do with their partners.

While most professional bowlers can bowl high numbers pretty consistently, mistakes can still occur. For example, sometimes, bowlers can simply forget to let go of the ball. Sometimes, this is because they’ve grabbed the wrong ball and their fingers are stuck; other times, they seemingly just space out (I get it). Regardless of why it happens, it’s pretty funny when it does.
