DAN NADEAU

 

Inducted:  2000 - Superior Performance

Dan began bowling at age 11, and by the time he became a member of the SNBA in 1985, he had already achieved an outstanding list of accomplishments, not the least of which was the Chuck Hall Star of Tomorrow award which was presented to Dan at the ABC National Convention in 1983.   He rolled his first 300 in 1982 at the Jr. State tournament in Carson City.  By 1985, he'd rolled  his first 800 series and recorded his 5th and 6th 300's, and by the time 1991 had arrived he'd bowled his 15th 300, rolled his 3rd 800 series and he and Jimmy Johnson were the ABC Doubles Champs with a then record 1505; Nadeau's Pro Shop was ABC National Team All Events winner, and he had won the Showboat $200,000 Hi Roller Tournament.   His stellar accomplishments throughout his bowling career on both a national and international level are far to numerous to list in this particular format but they have brought the spotlight of recognition to both himself and to Southern Nevada on many occasions.   Dan continues to add to his string of 300's and his endless other high score awards.
