00:04 Well, we're inside and just normal night of bowling and
00:08 out of nowhere he just came in and there was a loud pop.
00:11 Thought it was a balloon, I had my back turned to the door.
00:14 And as soon as I turned and saw it was not a balloon, he was holding a weapon.
00:20 I just booked it down the lane and I slid basically into where the pins are and
00:25 climbed up in the machine and was on top of the machines for
00:28 about ten minutes until the cops got there.
00:30 Just, yeah, I don't know how to explain it.
00:35 I don't think you're supposed to see that in real life.
00:38 Over ten, where at least I knew they were shots.
00:42 And then when I got on top of the bowling machine,
00:45 it was a lot of ruckus back there.
00:48 So I don't really know from that, but
00:50 I heard the first one that was probably 15 feet behind me.
00:54 I mean, he was close.
00:58 Very close.
01:00 Nothing, no one close.
01:02 I mean, I'm pretty sure I knew one guy who, I'm not gonna say we're friends,
01:07 I just knew him friendly, we've seen him there before.
01:10 But I just went there just to bowl by myself and yeah,
01:16 I wasn't even there ten minutes.
01:17 >> Ten minutes?
01:19 >> Yeah, I just walked into the place.
01:20 And yeah, I was putting on my bowling shoes when I, when it started.
01:24 So, I've been barefoot for five hours.
