Well... it's a bit of a period piece, but I don't see what's so weird about it.

Very few sports require hand - eye coordination, strength training and mathematical skills like bowling. Immediate feedback for your efforts is so satisfying. When you get that strike, the sound of all those flying pins in the pit is unmistakable. Too bad interest is so low and the alleys are closing without replacements.

My friend and I would go to the alleys for fun. We'd keep score for money so we could bowl after league ended. Kept us off the streets.
