  • Danny Wiseman Superior Performance
    Danny Wiseman Superior Performance Danny Wiseman was born in Baltimore on September 24, 1967 to Dorothy H. Wiseman- Potter and the late Albert P. Wiseman Jr. He has one sister, Catherine A. Wiseman. Danny graduated from Dundalk Senior High School in 1985. As a child Danny was an avid baseball player, with bowling being a close second. Danny started bowling at age 5 occasionally going with his father and sister to Fairlanes Eastpoint to bowl duckpins. By 6 years old tenpins had become the bowling game of choice and at 7 he was averaging 119. Many nights were spent at home bowling in the basement with his dad using plastic pins and tennis balls. Dad would set them up and I would knock them down every night recalls Danny. Saturdays were quite hectic with bowling in the morning and baseball in the afternoon. “I was always late for baseball practice” says Danny, but the coach tolerated it because I could throw a fastball for strikes at 50+ mph at age 9 and was also a good third baseman. As a kid there were many trips from his house on Berkshire Road through the Burger King parking lot and then running across Merritt Blvd. with 4 - 8 bowling balls to Fairlanes Dundalk to practice every day. That was back before 3 ball rollers. “A luggage cart with straps worked” says Danny. Little did he realize that some 20 years later, 50+ balls loaded into his SUV would be the norm. Eventually bowling took precedence over baseball and at the age of 15 in January 1983 at Fairlanes Dundalk, Danny became the youngest bowler in the Maryland AJBC to bowl a 300 game and 750 series.

  • Bowling, a Pastime Long Associated with Blue-Collar Americans
    36 2 0 1 1 N UMBER 4 | E NGLISH T EACHING F ORUM by Phyllis McIntosh Art might seem to have little in common with bowling, a pastime long associated with blue-collar Americans. A bowling alley (the traditional name for a bowling establishment) is the last place one would expect to find an art gallery. But Lucky Strike, a chain of chic upscale bowling centers, proudly claims its passion for the arts. Its lanes and lounges in 22 cities nationwide are famous for their ever-changing video displays of works by dozens of emerging artists. Lucky Strike’s innovation is just one example of bowling’s dramatic transformation over the past few decades. Once a no-frills sport played mostly by lower-middle-income workers in sponsored leagues, bowling has become the centerpiece of high-tech family entertainment complexes and fancy clubs that appeal to trendy urbanites. As a result, bowling is enjoying a resurgence in popularity, especially among the young. According to the United States Bowling Congress (USBC), more than 70 million Americans bowl each year, which makes bowling one of the most popular participation sports in the United States. The Golden Age of Bowling Of all American pastimes, bowling is one of the easiest to pursue. Just show up at Bowlers are required to the neighborhood bowling center, rent the required shoes, use the balls provided, and wear shoes like these, which won’t mar the floor of the pay a reasonable fee to bowl as many games as you like.
