Why do you bowl?

Asked at Royal Crest Bowling Lanes on July 17, 2006

“I bowl because I enjoy it. Trying to shoot for that ultimate score. It's a game where you don't have to play against anybody.”

“It's fun, and it relieves stress. It's nice and cool inside the bowling alley, and it helps me spend more time with my family.”

“It's a social activity. I like being social, and it gives me something to do to get out of the house. I don't think about work, stress or money. I just think about bowling and hanging out.”

“Enjoyment. The fundamentals of bowling can be used anyplace. It's on the level, it's upright and it's a real square game. You can have a 90-year-old competing against a teenager, and they might bowl the same score.”
