|-|Appearance=
===Appearance===
It appears to be a cartoonish red bowling ball with three holes on the top, and light is reflecting off the top. It also has highlights from top to bottom on this nextbot's image and has 3 small white dots on the top. The GIF possesses a bowling ball spinning around clockwise slowly.
The image is very likely drawn in vector, as it features the use of a gradient. Then, it was formed as a raster graphic.
|-|Audio=
===Audio===
The proximity audio emits a bowling ball rolling on a bowling lane.
The jumpscare audio depicted the player successfully knocking all-in-one bowling pins precisely, which made the narrator shout, "Nice throw!". It can also hear people cheering and clapping in the background.

===Image===
bowling ball's image possibly came from a dev/fanmade image of a red bowling ball that was seen in Freepik, the free stock image website. You can find the possible source from here. However, its image came from a Roblox decal library, which can be viewed here. This was made by thremboBoy/@superpowernic34 on February 4th, 2023.

===Audio===
bowling ball's proximity audio possibly came from a Roblox audio file "Audio/ballroll" that was published on its release date.
bowling ball's Jumpscare audio originates from a November 2006 Wii game Wii Sports. This game is about sports where the player must use a Wii remote/Wiimote to kind of simulate real-world sports equipment in a certain activity. Back to the audio, it came from the section "Bowling" where the player knocks down the pins in the alley, and after the bowling ball knocks the pin, the narrator can be heard talking.

== Trivia ==
*bowling ball had no proximity audio. However, in this video at 0:19, bowling ball's audio can be heard for a split second before getting jumpscared, implying that bowling ball's proximity audio got bugged while transferring the testing content to the main game.
**However, on an unknown date, bowling ball's proximity audio was added in the main game.
***The developers could have added the audio in either the Cosmetics Update or the Halloween patch similar to jeep, speed and vehilce but it's unconfirmed.
*Although bowling ball's GIF doesn't work in-game, it does in nextbots rng.
**It will likely be fixed in the main game soon, as it now works in nico's testing.
***As of the newest update, the GIF now works in nico's nextbots.
