ive been getting into it the past several months and bowled for my school league and was wondering if anyone else on BR enjoys it?

Yup this winter I have gotten into bowling and Texas Hold'em. Every Tuesday and Friday night is bowling and every Saturday night is Poker.

I always thought it was pretty fun, but I am HORRIBLE at bowling.

im 23 now but in highschool i went down state for bowling, now i currently bowl in two leagues

"Bowling for Burgers" was one of my favorite shows on UHF. Seriously though, I used to bowl on work leagues all the time. Tons of fun and decent exercise to boot. Earl Anthony and Mark Roth were my favorites to watch on Saturday afternoon TV, along with Johnny Petraglia.

Why did bowling go down hill I wonder ?

I'll play every once in a while. It's pretty fun!! Especially when you have a bunch of friends with ya!!

I've bowled in leagues for the past 20+ years. When I was single I bowled 3 nights a week. Now I only bowl on Thursdays.

We drink and play cards while we bowl. Great fun with a great group of guys. I hope I'm still doing this when I'm 80...

If I'm lucky enough to live that long.

Haven't bowled in a while, but when I was in college my buddies and I would go to this bowling alley that was attached to a strip club, Hard Bodyz.  We'd bowl, then go to the club.  Pretty interesting combination  ;D

The locker room attendant at my golf course once bowled a 299, which is hilarious if you know his personality  ;D

my firends dad did that a few months ago, personally id probobly be so mad that id die if it happened to me ;D

I used to bowl alot.  When I met my (now) wife we went bowling on one of our first dates.  She rolled a 190 something and just destroyed me.  I found out afterwards that her grandparents owned a bowling alley, and she grew up working there in the summers.  I kinda lost my interest in bowling after that.  :'(

It's a sad day for bowling here in Brewtown.  The US Bowling Congress, which has been in Milwaukee for over 100 years, is leaving town.  As one bowler put it, "Bowling is part of Milwaukee's identity...It's a travesty."

x2, she could probably hustle some dudes. With the winnings she could take you out to dinner.  ;D ;D

or buy him some pretty good bowling lessons lol jk  ;D

I've been in the bowling business for 34 years both as a mechanic for 23 years and now the last 11 years being distributor for Brunswick out here on the west coast. As for you comment Bass-Brat, bowling started it decline in the 90's due to mainly 2 things. 1, the economy sucks and people didn't have much extra money(just like now)  2, the bowling industry insisted on saying bowling is a "sport" to which it is not. Bowling is a recreational game in a totally controlled atmosphere both on and off the lanes. Then the bowlers(higher average ones) started saying they were "athletes"   LOL
