I'm from Warren and I was just thinking how I need some new bowling buddies while I went off to shoot by myself.Rosebowl lanes on Grosebeck Hwy was a buck a game today.I doubt those prices will last long.

I live in Swartz Creek, near Flint.

I am holding a sport tournament in Lansing, right plop in the middle of most of us.  August 29 (Sunday) is the day.  Perhaps we could get together on Saturday the 28th out that way.  Anybody wishing to bowl in the tourney the next day would be more than welcome.

If interested, please post here and I will message you.  I can get a decent price on hotel reservations too!

The summer...  time to get my ARSEnal in gear!

Sport tourney you say?  Odds are it'll be at Royal Scot.

Yes, the sport tourney on August 29th is at Royal Scot Lanes at 1pm.  I also have one on July 25th at noon at Airway Lanes in Kalamazoo.

Again, if we want to put together an open bowling get together in Lansing, let me know.  If Lansing is too far for the Metro Detroiters, maybe we can also put something together down your way.

Sounds like fun to me!

Hey, Im out in Novi here.  Brian, I won't be able to make it to the tourney on the 28th, or 29th.  I've been sentenced to walk the eternal plank (wedding)

If anyone wants to get together sometime, lets do it!

Well I've tried to get some Michigan get togethers going for a while now, and usually maybe one person responds.

I give up.

I was going to joke about the same thing Brian.  Michigan is supposed to have the largest concentration of bowlers in the country.  Every time a get together is talked about, no one wants to drive to anyone else's house.  LOL.  SrKegler has driven all over the country.  Thongprincess has flown cross country several times.  I've driven to Orlando and Winston-Salem twice, and might drive to Dallas in a few weeks.  Jeffrevs, Clutch, Mojo, and Joey-bag-of-doughnuts have managed to meet a few times.  I guess they're the exception.

Busted.  Just who was she then??  Huh, wait till you get home.  DO NOT expect any cookies for a while.

BTW, you will not need any new bowling balls, by the time I get thru with you you'll have a pair big enough to use.

Thank you for the compliment Brian, its nice to see there are some bowlers with taste

I live in Calumet(aka BFE). Tis' quite the long haul(9+ hours to Lansing) down below the bridge, though I have gone down there to bowl(back when the Majors had a televised final). Due to financial constraints, I've only bowled once since Nationals(early June). These get-togethers sound like so much fun, but, as I said, it's a looong way to drive.

Hey Drillbit, I'm going to Escanaba sometime soon.  Perhaps we can get together and throw some games.

LMAO, nice one (whomever you are)  And you should know, I already have a pair big enough to use.  Still trying to find a nice 2 ball tote that provides support in all the right places.    Seeing that post freaked me out for a minute, almost thought it was time for a handle change.  The real future Mrs. Guzman got a kick out of the post as well

Hey cap',do they still use barnwood for lanes at sparetime?

Six Pack , you bet and they are the old dry one's at that !!!

I take it you have visited the hell hole of the north ??
the owners said last summer that they were re-doing the lanes, changing the surface which we voted league fee increases to pay for it. Guess What !!

new carpet and glow bowling   GEE Thanks.

any one gets up north give me a shout, I'll show you what a true butcherhouse is !!

averaging 200 here is like 225 ++ anywhere else !!

my parents used to live in Alanson.I kinda miss the old place,the way the ball would move in the groves in the wood.it was funny to me because I knew I didn't bowl there on a league.
