Do You Like To Bowl? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice · 02-16-2005, 11:07 AM

I don't hear bowling mentioned much these days. It was very popular when I was a young teen and adult in the 70s and 80s. It was a cool 'date thing' to do.
I was pretty good at bowling, but not great. I only liked bowling with small balls and hated the big ones.

My husband bowled for years on league in his work. He was a very good bowler.

Has bowling gone out of style?

I like to bowl; it's been a long time since I played. I can play with either the small balls and/or the big ones. I play for fun; not to win.

I love to bowl for fun. I am not only very good at it.

Ags2000 · 02-16-2005, 11:42 AM

I LOVE bowling. I was in a league when I was younger. I have a trophy for high series, high game, and high average. I also have a BUNCH of patches including a "I beat my coach" badge which I won the game I got high series.

Yes, I LOVE bowling! I usually go bowling with a group of friends. It's not that often, but I enjoy it.

Steve M. · 02-16-2005, 12:11 PM

YES! I love it!

Unfortunately, my local alley was demolished to make way for a new Walgreens!

But there are a couple of other alleys nearby.

Georgia's on my Mind · 02-16-2005, 12:14 PM

surprisingly yes, actually i am quite a good bowler.

Dutabi84 · 02-16-2005, 12:15 PM

I'm positively the worst bowler on the planet...but yeah, it's pretty fun.

robyrob · 02-16-2005, 12:40 PM

i'm still banned from all the bowling alleys in town, but I used to have fun at it - maybe a little TOO much fun.

PZelda · 02-16-2005, 12:40 PM

I enjoy bowling

I do it for fun, not for the competition. I'm pretty average, I can break 100 every time I go bowling.

Unfortunately, I haven't been in a while...Maybe 2003 or early 2004?

GARFIELDKOOL · 02-16-2005, 01:33 PM

I don't bowl all the time, but when I do, I find it fun and relaxing.

Chad22 · 02-16-2005, 02:29 PM

I Enjoy it Although I Don't do it that often.

in 8th grade i got kicked out of the bowling alley for running down the lane after my ball and screaming "NOOOOOOO MY BABY!!!!!" i got kicked out again the next week because i kept bowling it light enough for it to stop in the middle of the lane and making the staff go get it every time. oh well, we were just going there every week for PE so i didnt care.

I like to bowl. I'm not very good at it, but I do like to bowl from time to time. It's still a popular sport here in Illinois.
