The 300 Austin
RSVP Required Click here
About The bowling extravaganza that started in 2006 has seen 3 years, over 750 bowlers more than 1500 attendees. Year 4 is upon us and we're gearing up for another great gathering. As always, we're dedicated to making sure we offer an awesome night of food, drinks, friends and bowling. However, learning from our past events, we've decided to relax the tournament format that we've used in the past. No longer will players be required to rush to the 300 Austin as soon as the clock strikes 7:00. You're free to bowl as much as you'd like whenever you can make it (since, for another year, the start of our event clashes with the Web Awards).
