Cmaaan cmooon.. some of you must bowl :p
I go once every 2 months or so.. It's a good winter sport. I started bowling when i was appx 12, kept it goin pretty steady for a few years. Was in a few leagues when i was little, joined a "travel league" in my early highschool years..that was always cool going to diff cities and rolling in different alleys. Since im living in a new city i figure maybe it's a decent way to meet a few cool people. Granted the nerd/creep to cool ratio in the bowling world is 10:1 it's fun none the less . I need ta look into buying a new ball, any suggestions as to whats at the top of the list these days? Zone still perhaps, I'm not going to pay $250+ but anything lower than that should be great.
I was up to a 145 average before i quit rolling on a weekly basis(around 16 years old maybe). Highest game was a 245 .
sooo.. dont be shy, who bowls?

Being in a bowling ally is sooooo depressing. The white trashyness of it all oozes from the walls.

Ah like anything you guys just need more practice, or...maybe you were just born to be bad :p . Lol, "the white trashyness of it all oozes from the walls." I hear what you are saying for sure haha. Think about how much worse it was when you could smoke in there.. although i would every now and again if i could.
Few years ago i bowled a 190 shroomin' .. then after the game i ended up sitting on the floor near the door lookin like an idiot im sure, i would not step foot in a well lit area like that trippin these days

Maybe a mod could move this to the sports section so it doesnt get buried as quickly and so maybe someone who enjoys this could stumble upon it

Bowling is the be-all, end-all activity when you're stoned and bored.
But besides that. Yeah I played in a league when I was a kid. Incredibly fun. There's an alley near my work, being that I have a two hour break every shift it might be worthwhile to get back into that.

The best thing about bowling is that there is a bar in every bowling alley so you can get wasted while you bowl.
My dad owns a bowling alley so I used to bowl all the time, but I haven't bowled in a long time. I haven't bowled in a competitive league since I was 15ish (24 now), and it's probably been about a year since I've bowled for fun.
But back when I used to bowl I think I had like a 160 average. Both my dad and older brother have bowled multiple 300 games.
I should probably start bowling again... I'd be able to get a free bowling ball and shoes from my dad, plus I can bowl for free whenever I want since he owns the bowling alley.

I used to bowl in a league for about 12 years. I held between a 198-205 average and earned around 50-60 trophies

I think you should get back into it Kiefish, it's right there..waiting for you
I wish my parents would have owned an alley... it would have been sweet to be able to practice for free whenever you wanted. The bar factor is nice now that im old enough to drink, buuut the beer doesnt help me out too much as far as accuracy..
RobertM.. I have no idea why i was sitting near the entrance for awhile, i had a friend there with me so atleast i wasnt the only addict sitting there like a moron. Really i have no idea why i do what i do.. do (did i just say doodoo) whilst i am trippin' heh.
Good to see there are a few of us here, sounds like we all enjoyed it quite abit but need to get back at it!
be bak, phoods rdy

When I first got my license me and my buddies would go to "Disco Night" at the bowling alley. They'd turn on blacklights and make it incredibly trippy.
One guy would show up by himself, get absolutely goddamn trashed, and bowl a 300 almost every weekend and just leave.
Ownage.

I went by my local alley today as a matter of fact!
I haven't actually bowled in a while though, I might try to arrange a night with some friends this week. The place I go has $5 unlimited bowling on some nights, and that includes the prices of shoes and all games. It's pretty fun, and they make it cosmic bowling too.
I really need to play the game of bowl soon!

That's what I did the last time I went bowling. They call it "glow bowling' here. The bowling alley kinda turns into a club for a couple hours.
It's pretty fun with a couple pitchers of beer.

I can't find anymore places around here that hold these events anymore.
Either people are super-serial about it or the alleys are just rundown junkers and overpriced.

Seems to me most alleys have a "cosmic night" .. I've only gone maybe a handful of times, i find it too destracting to actually do any good. I've noticed when i hear of people bowling 300's they've always seemed to do it more than once..kids younger than I even, tis crazy. I'd love to get a 300 some day. Get me a 300 game oversized superbowl ring heheh. $5 all day/night that'd be saweet, bowl until your thumbs too sore to shuv up your ass that night. I hope at least one of the new alleys i go to have somethin cool like that. I was thinking about maybe even trying to get a crappy part time job at an ally, meet some peeps and perhaps get some free practice

Well it unfortunately not all day/night, but from like 10pm-1am, so it's still pretty good.
I'm aiming for a Dutch 200
