As a young kid I used to be a "pin boy" at the bowling alley in the basement of our school. We didn't have automatic pin pickup so my job was to pick up the fallen pins and drop them into the pin resetter machine as needed and then activate the resetter at the appropriate time. For a few extra bucks greasing my palms, during competitions I could arrange for your score to improve by tossing an extra pin down just as your ball hit the head pin.
