Wow- I had no idea that you could make a White House trip for winning a bowling title. I thought that only teams from the major sports like basketball and football were able to do that. That is very cool.

I find it very odd that President Bush would take such an interest in this bowling title. Although I'm sure they worked hard, so do a lot of other athletes; this recognition seems a bit over the top.

President Bush is odd; this doesn't surprise me at all. I am more shocked that they were excited to meet him.

Funny and true at the same time. Glad they enjoyed the experience though.
