He joined the company's bowling team while working nights as a warehouse forklift operator, and soon he was spending his mornings after work practicing the sport. He gave up on his initial attempt to join the PBA tour. He became proficient enough to play in the PBA six years later, having achieved greater success in local competitions. In 1970, a year after rejoining the tour, he won his first PBA title.
Anthony went on to win the Firestone Tournament of Champions twice and the PBA National Championship six times. From 1974 to 1976, he was the top money winner.
