BIG MEET IN INDIANAPOLIS
Date: 1936
For those unable to attend the 1936 American Bowling Congress’s world championship in Indianapolis, radio station NBC broadcast the tournament nationwide and five newsreel companies sent crews to document the action. The meet featured 2,853 teams, 32 brand-new alleys and an elaborately decorated ceiling at the Coliseum at the state’s fairgrounds.
