| rdfs:comment | - Two men impersonating Canadians, Dr. Frederick Smythe Von McDonald Flintstone III and his "special friend" Barney Rubble of Flint, Michigan, were tired of boring old ten pin, sissy five pin and even midget bowling. Go figure. So, after getting inebriated outside the Winnipeg Post office, they decided to take their balls out on frozen Lake Winnipeg to see which one of them could break the ice surface sending their opponent into the water. While this is technically *NOT* ice bowling, it was the first time someone had found a practical use of a bowling ball and is thus noteworthy.

While this is technically *NOT* ice bowling, it was the first time someone had found a practical use of a bowling ball and is thus noteworthy. Reportedly, had the men heard of the even lamer game, curling, ice bowling wouldn't had been invented. However, the sad sap who witnessed the event, but whose name I can't remember, somehow came up with the game just as Barney slipped through the ice to his watery grave. For shame, save that event and I'd probably be surfing for Jenna Jameson mpegs instead of writing this sorry shit.
