Not-so-fun fact: Out of 784 recorded weeks of Gutter Alley league bowling, this was the third lowest-scoring week overall in league history. In fact, you have to go all the way back to October 2000 to find a week with lower scores across the board!

But it's not all bad news. A few people had breakout games, and one team even managed to double its win count! 😝

Congrats to Ryan Sisco for being this week's Most Valuable Bowler, and to AJ Hofmann for being #1 Power Ranked and #1 Head to Head!

The Tournament of Champions also began this week, click your ass on in to see how the first round turned out!

A stagnant fourth week of Fall 2026 has arrived, and folks, the standings were so motionless I briefly checked to make sure somebody hadn't accidentally bolted the teams to the floor. I am Alotta Tenpin, reporting live from the sidelines, where the pins are standing tall, the balls are rolling somew...

Huge shakeups in the standings this week, as Nathan Burrows wins Most Valuable Bowler and Scott Murdock claims #1 Power Rank and #1 Head-to-Head!

The Tournament of Champions begins next week! We have three divisions of 7 and one division of 6 -- the fullest ToC roster we've had since the BC (Before Covid) times! For the new people: get ready for some fun, but don't worry it's no extra work for any of you.

This week saw huge shifts in the standings, and Jeremy Varnell and Chris Windham swept the weekly awards! Just one week left to determine Tournament of Champions divisions and three people have yet to set an average so hopefully all of those three make it next week!

The second week of Fall 2026 arrived with three teams climbing the standings, three teams slipping backward, and enough drama on the lanes to make a bowling alley feel like the center of the sporting universe. I am Alotta Tenpin, reporting from the sidelines, where I have my notebook, my highly ques...

Summer is over already! Jon Little picked up 2 of the 3 weekly awards (nobody got MVB as is typical the first week), Mike Fitzgerald rolled a new personal league best game, Jeremy is in the doghouse, and defending champs Squids debut in... third?

The Fall 2026 season is officially underway, and six teams have now launched themselves into 16 weeks of bowling, bragging rights, and the pursuit of that most coveted of prizes: the completely nonexistent championship trophy. Hi, everyone! I'm Alotta Tenpin, your exuberant sideline reporter, and I....

FYI The snack bar fryer will be down tomorrow, so Kenny is ordering in a complimentary Minsky’s pizza buffet to keep us all from dying of starvation on the lanes this week.

In a come-from-behind shocker, Squid Row waited until the very end to use their tentacles to sn**ch the championship out of what had been some very Hot-n-Ready® hands! Mike Fitzgerald won the Tournament of Champions with Jon Little claiming second place! Dennis Walling was this week's MVB and #1 Head-to-Head Bowler, while Nathan Burrows took #1 Power Rank.

Next week we meet for the final time this season, where a pizza buffet will precede the awarding of prizes. Following that, optional just-for-fun 9 Pin No Tap bowling.

(The new league page cover photo is a placeholder until a real team photo can be taken next week.)

The Spring 2026 season has reached its grand, glitter-soaked finale, and somewhere out there a confetti cannon is probably still firing directly into somebody's basket of chicken wings! All three pairs of lanes featured very closely matched teams, with two of the three matches having no handicap wha...
