    That sucks. Where I bowl there's only 16 lanes, and it's only 15 minutes away . Otherwise, it's a long drive to whatever is left if they close.

    The one close to the house has accepted an offer. Hasn't gone through, but if it does there's little chance it will remain an alley. Whilst open I'll still go for my 4-5 middle of the week games.

    Well some of my teammates, staff at the lanes, and I decided to go close the place down properly brought a bottle of Makers Mark and threw some games. I have to say scores went down as the night went on I'm not sure why . The guy that owns the building came in as we were packing up and told us he has decided to keep the place open . So we will still have a place to bowl for a while anyway. So I have league to look forward too Friday night.

    That is good news. Hopefully they can keep it open or find somebody to purchase before it closes.

    Glad to hear they'll stay open for a bit... maybe he can find a buyer/investor and keep the place running.

    That's what we are hoping for. Business has been improving just not quickly enough.
