I love bowling and I love pool, so I think I should try to find Steve Wienecke's number to thank him for combining the two.
Dubbed Knokkers, the world's largest regulation-size pool table takes up Steve Wienecke's backyard, using bowling balls instead of regular billiard balls. Although Wienecke is a probation and parole officer by day, he is an inventor at heart and hopes to see Knokkers on cruise ships and amusement parks in the near future.
