About this Show
Born to Bowl
From executive producer Ben Stiller and directors James Lee Hernandez and Brian Lazarte (HBO's McMillion$), Born to Bowl follows five professional bowling stars – Kyle Troup, Anthony Simonsen, EJ Tackett, Cameron Crowe, and Jason Belmonte – as they chase glory, respect, and much-needed prize money on the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) Tour. Taking viewers inside the colorful world of professional bowling, the series reveals a quirky sport with ancient roots, shaped as much by personality and persistence as by skill and precision. Each at different stages in their careers, the men must balance their ambition with the uncertainty of a profession built on week-to-week performance and earnings that often require them to take day jobs to make a living. With every strike, spare, and split of the season, the series offers a humorous and heartfelt portrait of life on a professional sports tour that's anything but straight down the lane.
