  Don Carter: Bowling loses a friend & legend
    MIAMI, Florida (January 6, 2012)  -  Bowling original superstar, Professional Bowler's Association and United States Bowling Congress (USBC) Hall of Famer Don Carter, died at his home in Miami Thursday night (January 5, 2012).  Carter, who had recently been hospitalized with pnemonia complicated by emphysema, was 85.
    Carter rocketed to fame during bowling’s so-called golden era of team bowling in the 1950s, but at that same time he was a dominant figure in the emerging world of sports television. He is widely  remembered as a member of fabled Budweisers of St. Louis, but most of the world got to know him through his appearances on television shows like Jackpot Bowling, Make That Spare, Championship Bowling and numerous others. He also traveled the world making appearances for Brunswick and Budweiser.
