I was bowling over the weekend and I noticed some strange wires dangling when the pins were knocked down. Brace yourselves....

Are these your string set pins Larry?

Yes, regrettably it’s true… standards have fallen in bowling and family entertainment

I told that fuck down at the league office... who's in charge of pin cabling?

It’s a shame but if it saves bowling alleys from going bankrupt then so be it.

Surely this contravenes a number of the league’s bylaws

Were you paying attention to the Dude’s story?

I hate those pin setters. Sometimes they knock over pins when they shouldn't, sometimes they hold them up when they should fall. Wave of the future, dude.

I switched alley's because my main one went to strings. I think they play ok, they just sound weird and the alley also raised all of their prices. Thankfully I have a few different options near me.
