- Come along as Andrew, Brendan, Nick, and I go bowling in Salem, VA! Andrew and I were pretty competitive as always. Other highlights include another round of Stacker and some mechanical failures with the equipment. This was my first time bowling on AMF equipment, and I wasn't terribly impressed.

dieselducy should do a whole video on the game stacker
So much Brunswick fans.
I like it.
Now let's watch the ball come out of the doohickey! I didn't know the ball return is now known as doohickey.

The way it looks is why it's called that LOL!
You guys sure had fun bowling 😊
That's why they call the equipment

Wow, AMF just got burned!
AMF is American Machine Foundry
I haven't bowled in over ten years...
Wow, you and Andrew are pretty good! Fun idea for a video
I started bowling when I was in second grade in Hawaii. It was a very great sport.
In this video, dieselducy (Andrew) is a co-director which TheElevatorChannel (Jacob) is bowling to knock out the pins.
So good to see bowling alleys remain vibrant social hubs well into the early twenty-first century. Loved the footage; the last time I visited an alley was sometime in high school, many, many moons ago.
2 bowling alleys near me are having a bowling bonanza this weekend! for $13.00 a person you can bowl for 5 hours straight on labor day. the owner also has a disclaimer stating he is not responsible for injury or if a body part is left behind. LOL!
Andrew: Excellent shot
Me: lol
Same lol 😂
One time when I went bowling, I got myself the 7-10 split, tried to bet $20 if I fail, and drove the ball to the left gutter, but the drive slid pin 7 to pin 10 giving me a split spare. I was like a magician.
7-10 split spare? I didn't know it's possible...
+filmer765 Once on my 8 birthday I went bowling as the birthday party and my best friend and I both got 7 strikes in a row. I got a bowling pin from the bowling alley as my prize. It's original from 2009. On the seventh strike my mom and dad were blown away by the number of pins I put down with the bowling ball. It was the best birthday party of my life. I wish I could have my fifteenth birthday party at the same bowling alley and get 7 strikes in a row.
I spent 22 years of my life managing a bowling center that was equipped with AMF 82-70SS Pinspotters... the same as what you bowled on here. I don't care if it's this machinery, the newer AMF 82-90XL, the Brunswick A-2, the newer Brunswick GS-series, or the much older AMF 82-30 or Brunswick A/JetBacks... any of them can have an occasional stop... BUT, all of them will run infinitely better if they're properly maintained. We ran entire shifts without a single stop. Our mechanic was excellent. These look marginal. They seem to be fairly sound but they run like the carpet belts and shuttles as well as pins themselves might not be as clean as they should be. Cleanliness is everything with any of these models.
To be fair, though... they were right on your distributor jam without any of you telling them about it. When the machine stopped, there was already someone there clearing the jam and the lady went after the deadwood also without any of you telling them. By the way, nothing pissed me off more than when I was working a mechanic shift and people would just keep throwing balls when they're obviously not coming back. Tell someone. I had 42 balls stuck on a pair (2 lanes) once. The ball returns hold 12. I cleared the pin in the lift and sent them back as fast as I could... lost my temper, I guess. But that's $20,000 worth of equipment they let you use for $4. Next time, take the 30 seconds to tell them the ball is stuck please and thank you.
Good Bowling DieselDusy WELL DONE 👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
The elevator company that went out of business in the 1970 got me 😂
They have AMF 82-70's!! They FAST but they don't run well
AMF is horrible. Brunswick is better. My local one has Brunswick and i bever see equipment failures.
+WheelockElevator WTF Same with my current bowling alley! yeah my parents were starting to get a little tired of rabs so now we go to Showplace. In 2013 all the equipment was modernized from Brunswick to AMF and now they suck; the computers always malfunction and all the lights go out in our lane. I'm going back to rabs on my fifteenth birthday. They're a fudge better than Showplace's machines. Showplace's machines got modernized by AMF and they now suck.
Unfortunately, I live near an AMF Center. At least they have a little bit of Brunswick equipment.
Nice! I like bowling. :)
Me too!
I haven't bowled in almost 7 years. I suck at it. Fun idea for a video though! XD
Glad to see everyone had fun! My Dad worked as a maintenance man for a bowling alley many years ago; got to bowl as much as I liked, for free. ;-)
I have heard that STACKER is rigged. It takes a certain amount of money to win a prize. It depends on the cost per play and skill. This is $.50 per play,
Hey DieselDucy, is that a Gameboy case for a Samsung Phone?
I didn't know you were a retro type of guy.
Stacker is on a payout rate, which means, until X amount of dollars are collected, it will rig you at the top. Some claw machines are like that too.
I honestly think I kind of suck at bowling. I’ve only gotten three strikes. The only thing that happened that was good was that I got two strikes in a row.
Stuck balls are very common on AMF.
Nice to see arcade games here, I like to watch elevators and arcade games.
Not bad, Jacob. Beats my average from the mid 90's by 10 pins.
Sweet lady she in pink whom remedying that wayward bowling pin so your bowling could continue.She walked down the channels with such style and grace, glad she had her moment in your video.Looks like she enjoys her being employed at the bowling center.I do know the staff at these centers are trained to cover a wide array of different tasks to help operate the center and keep it operating.Clearly you and your friends had fun bowling!!!
What's different about the alley from the time of this video being posted on TH-cam to now?
They have AMF 82-70 pinsetters!
I got bowling place where I lived and it was a ripped off
I don't like AMF equipment, much prefer Brunswick - it is more reliable
+Joshua Crook One of my favorite bowling alleys is at the Tan-Tar-A resort in Osage Beach, MO. Completely original 60's Brunswick system that doesn't even have automatic scoring.
+Joshua Crook
Over my side of the pond AMF is the most reliable (when recently installed)
They use Surface pro 3s as the interfaces and the displays as LG flat-screen tvs
+Joshua Crook I prefer Strike Bowling Bar or neon bowling alleys.
Is amf only in the Aus
hey dieselducy
I was at a vocational assessment center, and they had a bowling alley. They had AMF equipment, and the balls got stuck all of the time.
+22408aaron WTF Same with my current bowling alley! yeah my parents were starting to get a little tired of rabs so now we go to Showplace.

Yuck i heard Justin Bieber in this. Other than that good video
+MKE Aviation And Elevators NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO JUSTIN BIEBER NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Man does AMF suck.
+TheElevatorPlanet I'm not much of a bowler, but judging by all the comments on here I'd say you're correct. Half of the entertainment of this trip was watching the machine get stuck and knock over pins by itself.
Yeah, I bowled myself back in High School(which was a year ago) and even OUR old ass equipment worked better then this shit...
+The Elevator Channel Sometimes it knocks off one or two pins when counting, sometimes even sets 8 or 9 pins instead of 10.
I think the button on Stacker is rigged.
I am not a huge fan amf lanes I have my own bowling ball and the brunswrick is better it sometimes my balls comes back quickly and other times it takes a while for it to come back then the bumpers don't always come up all the way
I don't like this equipment... Brunswick is 100% beter.
Too bad all of it is AMF now, including the A-2 Pinsetters.
Bad news: I go to an AMF Center. Good news: Brunswick a2 machine
Remember NOT ALL PINSETTERS ARE PERFECT SOMETIMES THEY WILL JAM
I once got to the minor prize on Stacker. However if you get to the major prize that's where the game gets rigged.
Man Andrew is so funny😂
You should get in a bowling league and get your own ball, I have been doing leagues for 6 7 or 8 years maybe even 9
+the elevator channel
AMF reeeeeeeeally SUCKSSSSSS. Every time I go to a bowling alley with AMF then I prepare to watch the machine knock it's own pins over.
AMF: All My F(iretr)ucks (Not Given)
7367Network I even go to AMF, but we have Brunswick machines, and every lane is good
except LANE 2 because the pins are bad and keep falling
I noticed a railroad crossing in the back round :) :) did u guys see any trains while you were there?
I reached minor prize in Stacker once but I made the stupid mistake of continuing only to fail on the last one
I like bowling.
I am on a bowling team
Hey elevator channel I am good in bowling my bowling score is 195 beat that
Hello From BolTv Mexico nice video !
I've been going bowling since I was like seven or eight.
7:57
Where I am candlepin bowling Much better
Watch this @ 2x speed. You're welcome.
I bowl on a league. I average around 185
Ever since the computation systems at my bowling alley got modernized by AMF, now my bowling alley's machinery stinks like horse poop.
HC EleFilms by Technicalboy3000 what was your machine before
Not one Strike?
I generally use a size 11 bowling ball
My bowling ball is a 12 pound and is a Ebonite Cyclone.
I use a Storm Prodigy.
Amf sucks because when I bowled at a 12 lane bowling alley bowling in leauge the pinsetters would always break every week like during 2nd or 3rd game the rake would stop at first ball sometimes and make a loud clunk clunk clunk noise with the pins and the lane would black out why is that? Btw I now bowl with Brunswick A-2 and they work a lot better then Amf
+jordan rausch That "clunk, clunk, clunk" is a distributor jam. When it "blacks out", someone's already there clearing it for you. Any AMF or Brunswick machine will run just fine if they're kept clean and properly maintained. I worked at a 24 lane AMF house for 22 years and our machines ran awesome. Our mechanic rocked! You could eat off the machines they were so clean. I think this happens more at AMF houses because you can get away with being a little lax. If you don't keep a Brunswick A2 clean, the pins will stick in the chutes constantly... they won't even run.
Dana Danarosana ok thanks
What a great video!
7:57 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
XD
It AMF 82-70
yeah it what
Funny
+The Elevator Channel STOP Pushing RESET! Just roll your ball next time you go to Lee-Hi Lanes.
HI RESETTI XD
I think I can beat Andrew at stacker
Depends, it is rigged
Highest score 256
AMF is horrible. Brunswick is better. My local one has Brunswick and i bever see equipment failures.
+WheelockElevator I know! You should really come to Staten Island NY one day and come to Showplace entertainment. The Brunswick machinery in there got modernized in 2013 by AMF and the machines now malfunction all the time. F*** YOU AMF!
In Thailand most bowling alley is Brunswick GSX
Happy Tylerienmam Networks my bowling alley's equipment got modded with AMF and sucks arse
Specialty Elev8ors and UEE's by Technicalboy3000 the 82-90xl?
Happy Tylerienmam Networks I'm guessing so but I do not know. All I know is that the new bowling equipment my bowling alley got in 2013 sucks the bull's butt.
Also who walks on the gutters YOU COULD GET ARRESTED FOR THAT
That was one of the employees
... I was in this damn I don’t remember
