Bowl Me Over is a Simpsons Comics story that appears in Simpsons Comics #136.

Homer gets yelled at by Barney, Carl and Lenny because he forgot their bowling league night again. The next day, during his work shift, Lenny and Carl tell him that they have removed him from the bowling team and replaced him with Professor Frink, because on average he scores 20 points more. At dinner Homer asks his family why they think he was kicked off the team. Lisa thinks that Homer should reduce his drinking because that was what made that he forgot about the bowling night. Homer goes to Moe's, but can not enter as it is leased out for bowling players, and it turns out that they are celebrating Professor Frink, who made the team reach the final. Homer continues his walk on the search for a new source of happiness and meets Kearney, Jimbo and Dolph, who are playing street bowling, a game where you throw the bowling ball on the streets using people as pins. They let Homer have a go and he strikes Ned down. Thinking it's funny, he joins their team.
