Bowlers and employees just found out today that the Bowling Center in West Chicago Illinois will be closing at midnight tonight for good. I know it's short notice, but this was my home center, and if you'd like to come say goodbye, you've got until midnight.

And now I will need to find a new fricking proshop.

Hoffman Lanes closed a few summers ago, B-Zone Deerfield is next (from what I hear). My friend manages a Brunswick in an affluent area, the only reason they are profitable is they charge unsuspecting teens $7.99 a game all weekend, they dont care, its going on mom and dads credit card.
