Bowling

On the first (or second or third, you get the idea) Thursday of each month we will many times meet for bowling at Recreation Lanes on North Broadway in Rochester.  We meet at 7:00 for a little batting cages action in the spring or summer, then go inside for beer, pizza, and bowling.  Only one of us is really any good (Terry) and so he gets a 40 pin handicap, at least for the first game.  

 

Our first bowling night in December 2004 (pics below), I won the first game by bowling completely out my ass.  Christian stormed back in the second game to defeat Molis by a single pin.  Luckily there was extra pizza around to placate the giant's wrath.  T.J. introduced us to the cosmopolitan world of pull-tabs, and we only lost about $10 each, or 2.5 lap dances in toto.  Little did we know how quaint such small losses would seem after a night at the Legion with the T.J.!

 

   Nick, T.J., Christian, Marc, and Greg at the Recreation Lanes.  Yes, he is that tall.

 

Nick answers the question "So how is the old lady?"

 

Just about to jump into the bliss that is pull-tabbing.

 

Waiting for more beer.  Note used (dead) pull-tabs.
