Glenn Richard Allison is an American professional ten-pin bowler and a charter member of the Professional Bowlers Association. He was born in Whittier, California to Leo Allison, a car salesman, and Stella Bradford. He won 5 PBA titles and one Senior PBA title, and was inducted into the PBA Hall of Fame in 1984. He is also a member of the USBC Hall of Fame, having won four titles in the ABC Tournament's Classic Division: he won in doubles in 1962, his "Eagles" team won in 1964 and 1966, and he claimed a singles title in 1970. Allison is most known, however, for being the first American ten-pin bowler to roll a perfect 900 series in sanctioned competition. He rolled the series on July 1, 1982, but the then-American Bowling Congress did not approve his award application, citing non-complying lane conditions. The decision sparked considerable controversy, as the ABC had sanctioned a 299 and 300 at that bowling center earlier in the season, and no other scores that night were unusually high ? even on the pair of lanes on which Allison bowled. But the ABC has never relented and still has not officially recognized the score.
