Yeah, I'm sure half of you are thinking, "did this guy just fall out of the 80s?" and the other half are thinking "Lebowski", but I love bowling, I'm even on a league. Bowling is so much fun with a good wager thrown in. On my league we allow betting, and even have a league pool, with nightly prizes and prizes for the whole year. I know to you younguns it probably sounds boring, but it's really a lot of fun and you should try it. No bumpers though, that's cheating.

I don't think I could ever play in a league or anything but to shoot around and play with a group of friends is fine by me. I haven't been in many years though, I guess I'm a sad bowler.

| Nothing wrong with bowling! It may be a bit old school for the younger generation but that doesn't make it any less fun. I have wagered on the outcome of a string or two in my time but sadly my skills (or lack of them) do not qualify me for league play. I still get together with friends to drink a couple beers and bowl a few every now and then.

| You might be surprised about getting on leagues. Bowling has seen such a downturn in interest there are newbies joining leagues these days!

| I'm pretty good at candlepin but can't play the big balls for nothing. Needless to say, I tend to stick to candlepin whenever possible. We have a nice alley not too far from our house so we go bowling once a month or so.

| OK, what is candlepin? I've never heard of that term before, and I know my bowling. I bowl with my daughter weekly, and on a league too. here in Canada most bowling is five pin but our lanes do have ten pin too. I just find the balls too big for me so I stick to 5 pin. No wagers for me though. I bowl for fun, and that's it.

i never thought of gambling on bowling! I used to go and play on Saturday nights because there were specials then (cheap lanes and cheap pitchers  ) Haven't been in a long while though.
