Title: Bowling
Post by: lbeery on October 30, 2013, 06:04:08 pm: Going bowling with some friends this weekend. Haven't been for years. What is the going rate for a game and shoes? I know it will be a lot more than I am used to but what do you pay where you are?

where I live renting shoe cost like $2 or $3 and game cost $6-$7 for one game. So well I guess it under $10 a game. Some place have discount you can look for under that game center name and see if they have discount offer or special week discount.. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I was about 16 and finally landed a date with this guy I really wanted to date. We went with a bunch of friends about 2 weeks before Thanksgiving bowling. It was my turn and believe it or not, I had a strike! Next roll, another strike (pure luck), anyway someone said one more strike & you have a turkey! I go so excited and said my mom will love a free turkey! (Little did I know that's what they call 3 strikes), I don't think I made a great impression on my date! :BangHead:

In fact I took my youngest bowling when she was about 2 or 3 years old. She wasn't strong enough to roll the ball down the ally. So the owner pulled out a ramp that is used for kids in wheel chairs. Great game for families and friends. Been years since I've gone as well.
