    Feb 18 2026

    After losing his bowling hand (and his dignity) to a vengeful scheme, washed-up pro Roy Munson survives on cheap booze and a comb-over that deserves its own zip code. His luck turns when he discovers Ishmael, an Amish bowling prodigy with a killer hook and zero world experience.

    The duo embarks on a road trip to Reno, dodging angry landlords and "milking" accidental bulls to reach a million-dollar showdown. To win, Roy must out-hustle his sleazy arch-nemesis, Ernie "Big Ern" McCracken.
