Local Ann Arbor Dude To Whoop Obama's Ass in Bowling

Kolan McConiughey Drops the Bowling Glove

While any outrage on my behalf at the Special Olympics gaffe would be completely manufactured, it seems an Ann Arbor gentleman and six-time Special Olympic bowling champion Kolan McConiughey has issued a one-on-one deathmatch with the Commander-in-Chief. From M Live:
OK, Mr. President. You think your pitiful bowling skills are something you'd see at the Special Olympics?

An Ann Arbor man has a challenge for you.

"Bring it on, Obama!" says Kolan McConiughey, who is proud of the six Special Olympics bowling medals he's won as well as the fact that he's bowled five perfect games. "I challenge him! I'll show him how to do it."
His average last year was 218, so Obama better seriously improve if he doesn't want his ass handed to him. Obviously, since only about 7 or so people don't like Obama in hippiesque Ann Arbor (most of whom are relatives of mine), the confrontation is good-natured.

Kolan bowls at the Colonial Lanes in Ann Arbor, which I recall has some pretty good Rock N' Bowl action on Fridays, and back during the 90s the bar at the bowling alley would serve high school kids with shitty fake IDs. I also have confirmed reports from my Mother that Kolan is a grocery bagger at the Busch's near Ann Arbor Saline Rd. Yes, the city is not that big, and it could use a boost in publicity after UofM had a seriously depressing season of football.

It's pretty fucked up when a tard can beat you at something.

I live at Belleville Road and I-94. Small world I guess.

Did you see the video about the guy who scored a perfect 300 in bowling during the special Olympics. It really shows Obama did stereotype the organization.

Obama's remark kinda reminded me of Matt Dillon's "I work with retards" line in Something About Mary. Except it really didn't seem as funny.

John,

He got a front page story in the Ann Arbor news, but it's pretty apparent the White House is going to let the news cycle play out.
