13 years ago, Pete Weber gave us the most “I’m HIM” moment in sports history.

This really is a great moment in sports history.

Edit: Didn't realize until today that the smack talk was directed towards a 12 year old kid, not the guy he was bowling against.

ESPN really tried to make bowling sexy for a minute there.

It checks out. Mark Martin finished 22nd in the 2012 Daytona 500 running in the #55 Aaron's MWR Toyota.

Was if followed by a Miller High Life pony and Samsonite luggage commercial ? Haven't seen bowling on TV since the '70s (except battle of the network stars / superstars). Brings back some memories

Very well could be, but it's a bit Barstool guys have been running with for years now. They'll just randomly tweet "XX years ago, Pete Weber tweet"

Always works

For a decade I didn't think to add a pause on the statement. Embarrassing

"Who do you think you are? (You think you're good, the best?)"

"I am!" (I'm the guy you think you are)

But now it's at a 12 year old it returns to nonsense again

Bowled in a league he was in, at Tropicana lanes, in Clayton,mo.

He'd be so coked up, that he'd be near fisticuffs every game he bowled, would lay into the old lady for no reason. He wished it Snowed, every day in St;Louis County. One of guys, on a team, nearly choked him out, he was so high, he thought he was Mike Tyson vs Michael Spinks, cept michael Spinks was 10x bigger, and could handle himself. It was funny and embarrassing


If it wasn't for all the shite his father did, for PBA, and bowling, he would of been banned a long time ago, He served all kinds of suspensions for coke..

Well if it’s Pete Weber Day, I’d be remiss not to mention the dopest ESPN Bowling commercial of all time.


Love the Lanes…
