2012 Bowling's 69th U.S. Open Stepladder Finals - Who Do You Think You Are? I am!

Pete Weber tries to win his fifth U.S. Open title, which would be the all-time record, but has to get by Ryan Shafer, Jason Belmonte and Mike Fagan to succeed.

This is the event after which Weber exclaims these legendary words: "Who do you think you are? I am!"

Originally aired February 26, 2012 on ESPN from Brunswick Zone Carolier in North Brunswick, New Jersey.

This was the only bowling event I ever watched live ... I picked the most legendary bowling event of all time

You don’t want to get on his bad side. This guy… he used to burn paper with a magnifying glass… *at night*

[adamrobinette]

Say what you want about Weber. He saved the sport on a pro level when it needed it. And he was present enough on TV every week that ratings took off. Plus he got even more clutch the older he got.

[samroelke]

I'm watching 4 years later on YouTube, , and I'm still afraid to move on his backswing...

1:17:19 is what we're all here for

[wintersakiller]

Pete talking with Belmonte after hitting the first strike of frame 10 is so wholesome, gotta love how respectful and encouraging he is to the other players, especially somehow who's idolized him for years

Pete with some great clutch bowling and the iconic one liner

1:20:41 for a real human moment

[tuckerstrack]

2:57 “he once killed two stones with one bird”

[aidenjaxlol]

People to this day still don't know who Pete was talking too. Some say it was a a guy, others say Pete was fighting with his inner demons. he's crazy

[Bowling_Planet]

The fact that *WEBER* won the *69TH* US Open is GOLD! 🤣🤣

[griffingeving]

so much to love about this. the fact that it’s on ESPN. it’s the 69th US open. Gary Thorne on the call. And of course Pete Weber. what a combination.

[travoncordova]

I don't know why, but for some reason at 56:43 the part where Randy says are we watching a bowling match or a boxing match. That part always gets me everytime. 😂

[anondescriptobserver]

Here for the 9 year anniversary of the greatest moment in the sport

[PeteB]

1:07:50 - This is AMAZING. I'm pretty sure it's Pete asking his wife "did he just say big balls?" holy shit, that makes this even more legendary on top of it being the 69th US Open.

[BodyofWater_]

51:18 this dude legit looks and sounds like a supervillain lmao

[thebowlfosho]

58:58 What would it mean for him to win today?"
Mike Fagan: *does mannequin challenge*

[GMilstead]

And being this big of a Pete fan, you can't lose a match in a more heartbreaking way than Fagan did. What a match.

[andrewptob]

All-time classic match. Wow. Also, Gary Thorne was awesome as the play-by-play guy. I wish he did more bowling shows.

[christianhustad]

To all of those who are wondering what his famous, “Who do you think you are? I am?!” Quote is about...

He said in an interview, from For The Win, it was towards a child who was giving him shit.

He meant to say “who do you think you are rooting against me? I’m the man of this tournament!” But his emotions were so high, he couldn’t get it out the right way.

Say what you want about Pete Weber he was 18 years old bowling in league with adults and holding his own. He was a big part of bringing bowling back. No disrespect to all the pros. I love watching them all.
