  • Games — A watermelon-colored bowling ball gets a 7-10 split. Scroll again and the ball hits both pins for a spare.
  • Characters — The lights dim, some lighting effects come on, and "The System is Down" is played.
  • Downloads — Homestar holds a ball that looks like Strong Bad's head, twirls it and puts it back.
  • Store — A bowling ball that looks like a globe falls through the floor.
  • Email — The globe ball rolls down the gutter.
