I love that Ozio shot a 279 and was rooting for Aulby to beat him and get that 300. He was even the first person to run up to him with his hands up in the air smiling. Instead of moping and being pissed off, he was happy for him and you can tell. This was when bowling was bowling. Love watching this match.

I would have let him beat me with a 300 on TV. I would expect the same from anyone.

Some Bowlers Split the First and second place money, and bowl for the trophy.

"How'd you bowl today, honey?" "Not bad. Shot a 279 and never had a prayer." You can barely hear Aulby's ball fall onto the lane. What a touch.

Definitely two of the greats of bowling in one of the best matches ever!

As a right hander, I dreamed of bowling like Aulby as a kid. So smooth. Bring back this style please!!

I saw this on TV live. Alby has the most textbook form ever. 💯

Such a graceful approach if I may say it that way very fluid a true legend

Ozio showed a lot of class.

As a fellow left-hander, Mike Aulby was my idol. Total class by Ozio when you're one strike from perfection and still lose. Aulby's perfect game was so dominant. Every single shot was a solid pocket shot.

Classic. One of the greatest matches of bowling history 👏.

The most tense battle in PBA history. Almost 300 tie

Jason Maier that must be second highest scoring match ever next to this one?

what a string by both bowlers, i miss the saturday afternoon bowling, always made my day.

Wow! I'm the first comment! I remember watching this on TV! One of the most epic bowling battles in PBA HISTORY!! I also love how David Ozio shows such great sportsmanship! The strike winning shot was followed by a high five inniated immediately by David to Mike Aulby. Then Dave cheered him on to the 300 game! Only 1 strike separated their scores. Incredible!!! The only thing better? A 300 to 300 tie then a roll off! Still so epic! Thanks for posting this great video!!!!!!!

Did anyone throw a more perfect ball than Mike Aulby? His form is silk

OMG!!! THE MATCH OF THE CENTURY!!!

David Ozio showed incredible sportsmanship, what a difference 1 spare can make, Ozio saw that Aulby was the better man and gave him a high five after the winning throw, and after the 300 was the first to congratulate him, awesome!!

man this final match was awesome, david put in a great fight almost getting a 7-10 on the 8th frame, but mike man, that was great, you can never see a match like this again, maybe in the future.

To the Younger Bowlers out there. Pay attention to Bowlers like Mike Aulby, Earl Anthony( RIP), Mark Roth( RIP). Brin Voss, Dick Weber( RIP), Steve Cook, John Gant, David Ozio,Joe Berardi , Lisa Wagner. One of the Greatest Female Bowlers in the History of Bowling.

This is one heck of a strikefest👍👍 Congrats to mr. Aulby 300 and great game by mr.Ozio [ 579] for 2 games😎😎

I remember watching this on TV. I've bowled at Northrock many times. Good house. Mike was a super nice guy to my dad and I.

Favorable scoring conditions to be sure, but both of these guys were rock solid, technically savvy players. Ozio showed a lot of class in high-fiving Aulby when he knew he was beaten. When you shoot 279 and lose, you can't really be too upset. The only thing that decided this match was carry.

Perfect score by a perfect bowler

The only non strike Ozio threw was his perfect shot and just got unlucky.

Bowling has a way of leveling things out. Ozio also had a trip 4-9 that could have been a split. Funny how you can throw a bad shot and get a great break sometimes...and other times, you throw a great shot and get a bad break, like that near 7-10 that really should have been a strike.

He has a bowling alley in my city and no cap he plays the clip of him getting strike 12 on repeat every single day.

Always felt like David Ozio should have e been a breakfast ceral... "Did you eat your Ozio's today?" Sweet whole grain bowling balls with marshmallow pins!! Part of a balanced breakfast.

In some events perfection would earn a million,nobody got it

Best match ever.

is 579 the most pins scored for two bowlers in a PBA championship match. that is like a No hitter and a one hitter in the same game

I bowled on this pair (31 & 32) at Northrock Lanes the day before the state high school tournament.

Aulby was 🔥 in the 90s.

that was an amazing title match

No Reactive Resin. No Fancy weight Blocks. Just a Ton of oil & Bowlers had to Adjust board by board.

2nd straight clip with a 300 game in the championship match. When did the PBA reduce the prize money for a perfect 300 game from 100 grand to 10 thousand dollars? It had been 5 years since the last 300 game had been thrown on TV.

back in 1991 I was bowling in the "Masters" league in Fresno Ca, I bowled 299 and lost to a guy who bowled a 300 game.....damn 10 pin...!!

Fantastici, il tiro ad effetto vorrei capire come si fa..

If I remember correctly, I believe that Brunswick gave him $100K because of the shirt/ball combination 300 game. Happened to Gene Stus the year prior on the Senior Tour. And then with Brian Davis' 299 game that he had a chance for the $100K..

I've had 4 300's, and several 279's, but I've never lost to a 300 while bowling a 279 in either single/double/team. That's rough.

Could you imagine shooting 279 and lose. What a hard way to lose a tournament

It's sad when you throw a 279 and still lose

Want to learn how to bowl? Watch this match. Ozio's form is flawless.

Aulby’s ball gets to the line a perfect microsecond later than his foot and I’m guessing he gets a pleasant little tug on the fingers when he launches it. Ozio is the perfect statesman for the PBA in his honest enthusiasm for Aulby’s perfect game, as well he should be-it’s good for business. Besides, who would be angry to see a guy beat the terrorist lanes man and his oiling toy?

Looks like a Fuze eliminator

funny to watch ozio get all cocky and reacting like he was and then lose because of just 1 spare! lol

This is a very good game, but I can't quite tell if or even when he got his lucky pin carry, but it felt like maybe one or two of those strikes were just a little left of target, in particular around 3:13
