[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Ed Lorenz, 69, bowled a 300 Wednesday in his first league game of the night at Airway Lanes. When the retiree got up to bowl in the fifth frame of his second game, he clutched his chest and fell over, and efforts to revive him failed.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]“If he could have written a way to go out, this would be it,” said Johnny D Masters, who was bowling with Lorenz.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Friends said Lorenz started bowling in 1957 and ended last season with a 223 average. He rolled his first two 300 games over a one-week period in 2004.[/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]In May, Lorenz was inducted into the Kalamazoo Metro Bowling Association Hall of Fame.[/FONT]

Says the dude was 69 when he died. And he bowled his first two 300 games in 2004. Meaning he was 68 when he bowled he first perfect games(two at that). That is quite a feat to bowl a 300 game...let alone to do it at the age of 68.
