Thunder is the sound of God bowling

When I was little and afraid of storms, my Mom would tell be when it thundered that it was the angels bowling in the clouds. I didn't really believe it though.

When I was a child I was scared of thunder and lightning. So my mother told me that it was God bowling, the rumble was the sound of the ball going down the lane and the "crash" was God getting a strike. She never did explain why there was lightning though....

When I was younger, I was deathly afraid of thunder. Well, my mom always told me that it was my Aunt that had recently died and all the angels in Heaven bowling.

Thunder was my dead uncle in heaven playing a round of bowling with God.

My sister told me that thunder was God bowling, and rain was the audience (the angels) clapping. She said the big, loud thunder claps were when He got a strike and when it rained harder, the audience was cheering Him on to hit a strike.
