it was great fun, but we apparently were too clever for our own good, and confused a LOT of people.
we made up individual bowling bags, team shoes, balls (!), custom league designs (logos on the backs of the shirts), custom monogramming of each character on the individual shirts, etc. .
and we didn't get stopped for many pics. . . if we had been 11 bowling Harley Quinn we would have been getting requests for non-stop pics. Oh well.
the funny thing is, the later it got - ie: the drunker folks got -- they started to get it!
and we got stopped to pose for a bunch of pics.

This is so freaking cool and I just DIG those BOWLING BALLS that's has the Character Logo's on them and Bowling League Shirts modified as well. Thanks for sharing this and this is so NEAT. thanks. . those balls were totally hand fabricated/hand painted by Troy (playing Superman), including giant Atom ball for me (stupid me couldn't keep my mouth shut and thought out loud that "wouldn't it be funny if my Ball was HUGE, since Atom shrinks?". . and Troy made it. . LOL. Tho he also made a tiny version so i had two). the shirts and shoes were done by Christine (playing Wonder Woman) the logos on the shirts were done by Michelle (playing Black Canary) the bowling bags were done by Marcella (playing Catwoman) the rest of us provided needed masks/pants/etc, or just gave them money to cover all the materials/work. yeah, my friends are awesome  |

and since they can be a little hard to see. . the shoes (hand painted and numbered to look like bowling shoes):  the JBL logo (large on back of shirts, small on chest):  and the IBL logo (large on back of shirts, small on chest):  and the balls in process:  |

^ you're very welcome. it was fun! Best part was hanging out with my friends (I only went to 2 panels this year, 1 1/2 concerts, and a bunch of parties. .heck, I didn't buy much in the dealer's room either. . I spent the whole con visiting w/ friends. . . which is really the reason we always go back!). |

You guys should totally join an actual bowling league dressed like that.
