The lights turn off and the whirring of the pinsetters ceases. One by one the lanes shut off, and it can only mean one thing — the 2010 edition of the Tiffin City Bowling Tournament is in the books. It has been a busy week, particularly for those of us who organize and run the festivities. I know my contribution is minimal, but I do help a little. When the machines turn off, signaling an end to the bowling, it brings mixed emotions. For me personally it means pizza. Pizza, pizza, pizza! The Association officers always enjoy the delectable treat after Friday’s final night of action. The stuff is good, I’m telling you. Actually the mixed emotions don’t have a lot to do with food at all. If you have been bowling poorly all week the feeling is relief. No more splits. No more 10 pin taps. Finally it’s over. Trust me, I know that relieved feeling. On the other hand if you had a couple of good nights, you constantly are checking the scores to see where you stand.
