Default Bowling Alley ?

Foof it, me and a few mates have decided just to have a few at mines before the boxing tonight

In conversation, one of my friends was saying that he fancied looking into the possibilty of fitting a single lane bowling alley in his basement, after a few of us laughed it off we seen that he is serious.

So what is the possibilty of doing this & is it feasible ? A local large car s'Dealer is rumoured to have one in his basement so i gather it must be possible.

Thanks in advance for your input

No chance, I've been working in this industry for 15 years, you simply cannot rent them, there's wayyyy too much to it.

Your best bet would be for a Bowlingo type system with pins on strings, but it just isn't something that you can hire for a night or two.

Hire a stripper.

Shirley, a Wii sports and a big telly is a more feasible option

Doh didn't read it properly.

Sure you can get one fitted, there's plenty of used lanes, pinspotters and scoring equipment around.

Any muppet can do it, with the help of eBay, by the looks of it...
