    Two possibilities here; either the country was under attack, and not only did this guy decide it was a good time to go bowling, but the bowling ally decided not to close for the day, or; this guy bowled at least one full game before 8:46 am. Not sure which is weirder.

      I was in college in Texas when it happened. I don’t remember anything closing.

      All of my classes kept to their regular schedules.

      Or started the game before then and decided to finish anyway. Or started before then and was too in the zone to hear about news.

        My money is on everyone being distracted so he took the opportunity to walk to the end of the lane and keep knocking over all the pins by hand.

        “Hey Earl, they just hit the pentagon. Maybe someone should tell Bill?”

        “Look, he’s at 260. Unless they get the White House, I say we let him have this.”
