Most people would avoid Strike Bowling at all costs. Us youth seem to prefer the dingier, dirtier, and beer-soaked floors of the classic bowling alleys. So what if the lanes are warped and your name ends up being Fan instead of Fran because the ‘r' button doesn't work? They always feel more authentic. What they don't have, and why Strike is worth the discotheque lasers and mainstream pop music, is amazing, miniature catered food!
Few things are better than individual portions of fish & chips, mini burgers, Cajun chicken pizettas, and wild mushroom and oregano tartlets served to you while you're bowling. It helps to make a sport that already has an automatic, arm-level ball return seem even more effortless and lazy. While the gourmet finger foods only come with the corporate functions (one of which I crashed), there are still great pizzas and even a lunch bowling deal you can book: $16 for a game, a pizza, and a drink. So just sit back, eat your nibblies, and try not to think about how many unwashed fingers have been in those same three little holes. Ew.
