    Gary Collins, Pine Bluffs Post Reporter|Aug 3, 2017

    Early Saturday morning, November 28, 2015, around 1:45 a.m., a caucasian male and female, brandishing a firearm, held up the office of the Gator's Travelyn Motel in Pine Bluffs, and made away with an undisclosed amount of cash.

    Tristen Zitek had flirted before with a perfect game, racking up 10 strikes in a row before leaving a seven pin on his 11th throw and finishing with a 288. Plus, he's had two 290 games this year. But on Feb. 3, everything came together to place Zitek in the record book as the youngest in Pine Bluffs to bowl a perfect 300 game.
