Don Doane has been bowling at Ravenna Bowl as part of the same bowling team for almost 45 years and on October 16, for the first time ever, he rolled a perfect game. When his teammates came to surround and congratulate him, Doane, 62, clutched his chest and then collapsed. He was taken to the hospital and pronounced dead of a heart attack. What a jones.
I deride Americans for being willing to do pretty much anything to be on TV, but it is in Japan where that attitude really gets taken to the extreme. Take for example this crew of folks who agree to play soccer while wearing binoculars and what looks like multi-colored prisoner outfits from a cartoon. Makes sense to me.

Clive Seymour, a 74 year old grandfather of 6, was aiming for the 10th hole at Hele Park Golf Club, in Devon, England, when he scored a hole in one. The only problem? His ball went into the 4th hole.
“It’s a great feeling, even if it was in the wrong hole.” Seymour said.
You bet it is.
