>>543774827This.There used to be a bowling alley in my town but it shut down after too many chimpouts.Same shit happened to the movie theater but at least that reopened a few years later under a different company.There are only two other alleys in my county, one of them is in a nightlife district with dedicated police presence so it's doing okay.The other one is swarmed by niggers.I was confused as to why at first, since bowling isn't a sport you would associate with them. But the reason is they turn up like it's a bar, because they've been banned from all the actual bars in the area.
It was always a boomer sport. It will die with them
Interesting that the first million dollar sports endorsement contract didn't go to a football, baseball, or basketball player, it was a bowler who first got paid that much. Beyond the multicultural stuff, bowling has several issues, one being the prices have risen faster than inflation, making it less affordable while there are many other things for families to do. Another is that the pin setting machines are very complex and the people who know how to service them are dying off. Very few people are learning how to work on pinsetters, so many places have had to go with much simpler string setters, like pic related. Bowlers hate stringed pins, so many are simply giving up the sport.

I have a wii, why would I go somewhere I can't drink to eat goyslop and play games around animals?I have a wii.
>>543775281Fuck these things.
>>543775489Neat.
>>543774438Bowling involves drinking, smoking, and bitching about your wife.

>>543774438All those activities were killed by phones and social medial. People don't like being filmed.
Niggers aside, It does feel like it has strong boomer vibesI don't see zoomer being interested on this "sport"
>>543775989This. Phones have fucking murdered social interaction.
They don't let kids in without an adult. I know its to prevent 'youths' and other list members from niggering it up but it stops young people from picking it up as a hobby if you have to have mommy and daddy right there with you.
>>543774438kek you anons really do read my posts. i've said countless times boomer and silent gen women used bowling alleys and skating rinks to meet men, now women just use instagram. no one actually cared about bowling itself, it was just a competitive coed pastime for people to congregate, basically a socially acceptable place for women to select men.
hmm according to this graph it's Trump and Covid lol
>>543774438Private equity, like always.
>>543775281>picThe fruits of private equity.
>>543774438Boomers started dying
>>543775489based, fuck string pins I'd rather play carnival games
>can't smoke in there>everything costs too much>have there been any good arcade games since the 90's?>food is trash tier>old worn out balls>disgusting falling apart rental shoesfuck it dude, let's stay home and play wii bowling, as it is still the superior experience
>>543774438looks like it's less popular overtime, but sharply drops whenever a new console gen comes out
>>543774438The mutt shoe equation. The more mutted someone is, the less likely they are to wear shoes they think are ugly and the more likely they are to steal ones they don't. That makes it literally impossible to operate a bowling alley for zoomers.
leagues. you can't bowl most nights because of them and when you can its $20 a game
Western Civilization plummeting from 80-90% to a mutted hellscape combined with the corporatization of the bowling industry which drives prices through the roof. People will not pay the $5-11 a game it takes to play and if they're not paying those prices, they won't be playing enough to get addicted.Bowlero will destroying bowling but oh well. >t. bowler
