Player 1. 1(8,0) 2(7,3...spare) 3(10...strike)
Player 2. 1(8,0) 2(7,3...spare) 3(10...strike)
Same number of pins each time thru 5(FIVE!!!!) frames!
This happened to a friend and I last night while bowling.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Impossible to compute since it depends on many things, such as the bowlers' skills, lane conditions, bowling balls used, pin carry, ball/pin deflection, etc.
However I don't see that happen too often. But a fairly common exception is when you put two skilled bowlers together and they each happen to open up with 5 strikes in a row.
PS: You can feel free to use the more common notation, i.e.
1. 2. 3.
8- 7/ X
