The reason im asking is because i would think that if they took on the bowling centers and debt that they would also be required to take on those too. From my understanding they were limited like no more than a total of 2500 cards issued issued 3 different times at 3 different prices and after the first offering, they used a lottery drawing. I haven't been able to bowl in about 3-4 years and haven't stepped in a Brunswicl to ask. I know i got my moneys worth within the first year of use.
