How much do you pay for open bowling in the summer time?
« on: May 06, 2003, 07:43:56 PM »
I went to the only center in town today to find out if they had leagues tonight.  A couple of friends, who don't bowl, wanted me to  go bowling tonight and drink some beer.  The price is 2.50 per game.  There is no "rent by the hour" or any other promotions.  The manager told me that they don't have to reduce rates and that they don't charge 3.00 during the winter.  With this being the only game in town, I don't know what other centers do.  What about in your area?

I usually pay about $1.50 per game.  The replies in this post surprise me.  There are only a few people paying high ($3.00-$4.00) prices to bowl.  I've seen so many posts on this board from people complaining of paying those high prices that I had started to figure that high prices were the norm and that I was just lucky.  The results of this post seem to indicate that more reasonable prices are the norm, especially if one is a league bowler at the place where they practice.
