Bowling Alley Artwork

  somehow heard about a very large bowling alley in Burlington (naturally, it’s called Burlington Bowl), and convinced the Girl-O and I to go and play a game of 10 pin. While the balls are larger sized than the Girl-O is used to, there were some available that were very light (4 lb and 5 lb balls) and the three of us had a fun time playing for about an hour or so.

While the others were in the washroom washing off bowling ball hole grime off their hands after we finished our game, I wandered over to the black-lit arcade area  (filled with billiard and foose-ball tables).  I stopped, stared, and luckily had my camera handy to capture these shots :

   

  

Festooning the walls was the most gorgeously cheesy display of 1980s SF van-art I’ve seen in some time, and I’ve taken some pictures to share with you all. Also on the wall, were some bizarre silver Tron-like mannequins, and I took a few shots of them too.

  

You can view such fevered SF visions yourself at Burlington Bowl (on Harvester Road, just off the QEW at Walker’s Line) for the admission price of a bowling shoe rental!
