Okay I am still chuckling as I type ... does one (being female) actually bowl in that outfit??
Have only tried duck pin bowling once ... haven't seen it since. Great discovery Norm. :)

One could only wish they did! :-) I've been a few times, but it has been quite a while now. It's the only duck pin alley I've ever run across.

Noooo ... I do not have a bowling outfit like that ... yours sound a bit blingy for the bowling alley unless you're part of the entertainment for the evening (on stage somewhere) lol

I was in a bowling alley in Lincoln, Nebraska where costumes were encouraged on some nights, but it was a pretty unusual place ... with some unusual promotions! :-)

Great shot and ensemble Norm ... would they be rubber ducks by any chance? ;)

Indycaver (Norm) club has replied to autofantasia club
Thanks Paul! ... No rubber ducks, but I'd often wondered if it really meant ... duck ... like as in get out of the way! The smaller balls tend to have a little more bounce!

I found odder displays and finally decided one of the shops was actually a coffee shop.

Cool find and nice loud image, now off to find out what on earth duck bowling is . . .

[edit] ah sounds like what we call 'skittles' in UK, quite a few country pubs have a 'skittles alley' out the back . . .

Indycaver (Norm) club has replied to Amazingstoker
Thanks! :-) Yes ... I think it would be very similar to skittles.

Interesting theme they have at that store! It has a feeling kind of like the 1960's Cold War, Atom bombs and duck and cover films from that era.

Indycaver (Norm) club has replied to HaarFager club
The bomb was the negative side of that era, but the positive side was that everything was going to be powered by the atom. I think they are taking the positive side of things.
