ABC Hall of Fame bowler, Harold Asplund, died at the age of 76. He was inducted into the ABC Bowling Hall of Fame in 1978 for his performance on the lanes. Harold did not start bowling until age 21 after watching pot games in a Denver bowling center, but he carried a 200 average and owned nearly every tournament title in the Northwest. His ABC Tournament debut in 1930 resulted in two top 10 finishes, and his record for winning big money in the Petersen Classic was unparalleled. He cashed 11 times in 16 tries, claiming more than $11,000, big money at that time. Asplund accumulated 15 other tournament titles.
