Access to bowling

Still allow smoking indoors in Texas?

I'm really glad they passed the no smoking ban in Illinois a few years back, it was nasty coming home smelling like a big ashtray, had to wash all the clothes, take a shower and keep your coat and bowling bag in the garage a couple of days to let it air out.

2. Male it an hour and it jumps to around 20 or so with the majority being in the Dayton area

You weren't planning on washing the clothes, and taking a shower anyways?


P.S. What is a "No Smoking Ban"?? If you don't smoke, you're banned?

Hey Darky, I have bowled at one of the lanes on Grand Island. Not sure what it was called, but old Wood lanes and a split house.
I live in Lockport. And do most of all my bowling at Brad Angelo Lanes.

Yea that's Malwitz Lanes on the Island now. I think it was called Island lanes previously. Only set of lanes I have ever heard of on the Island. Ive bowled out at BA a cpl times before. Typically I bowl at Manor Lanes, but my current league is in Classic lanes now The former MilSher Lanes in Tonawanda.

Ah yes, Malwitz sounds right. I just remember the old wood lanes that were so dry.
Never bowled at Manor and many years ago I did bowl at MilSher.

I am going to start bowling ABT in 2016 after all the holidays and stuff are over. So I am sure I will frequent these lanes a lot. The other house I bowl at frequently is Rapids, since that is where my PSO is out of.

Have you ever bowled at Holler House?

I have, and it's a blast!

Well, within 30 minutes I think there's at least 12 places around me, perhaps a few more.

Within 30 minutes... probably about 12, maybe a few more. When I move in a couple months, that will go down to about 5 (only moving 20 min away from where I am now but out to the boonies a bit). Good news is the center I primarily bowl at is still between work and home.

[Timmyb]

I live in Milwaukee. We may not have as many as we used to, but it's still hard to not run into one every couple of miles! I have three within 5 miles of my house. The one I shoot at is a half mile away.

Thought this over, and it's 5 or possibly 6 with 5 miles. Three are withing 2 miles, and 2 of them are legitimately walking distance. I am blessed!

Within 30 minutes I just have 1, but I live in a relatively rural area. 45min to an hour gets me 8 additional.
