That must be some place to bowl. 600 out of 16000 - you must be a heck of a bowler, congratulation! Thanks for the background information Phil, that is interesting. That must be some place to bowl.

It's quite an experience to roll in that facility, most local bowling alleys have much lower ceilings - but, as you can see there, you're just an ant on a globe there...doesn't seem like it would make that much of a difference, but it does!! I actually placed 600th out of 16000 entries in the division I bowled in - wasn't worth a LOT, but, a few dollars... ($150 or so..)

Just kidding, I probably would have lost big. Hey DB, looks like the guys here for the races - have moved on to the track. At least I think they were here for the races, otherwise it would seem weird to have a giant trailer with you name painted on the side! Ron Hey Carl,

Actually I went in first without one just to see what was going on and no one really paid any attention to me, so I went back with my tripod and quietly climbed into the stands. Again no one even noticed, so I shot fast! I bet you are right Doris. I want to ask some of my bowling friends about it - I would think it is famous. I was tempted to bowl there just because it was such an amazing place! Thanks, Ron Yeah Richard, I’m often self conscious about carrying a tripod in a place like this as well.

Were you able to bring a tripod in there? I get a little self-conscious sometimes bringing tripods out in crowded places. Nice find Ron! Were you able to bring a tripod in there?
