Slog - Comments on Sunset Bowl http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/03/sunset_bowl The Sunset Bowl in Ballard is closing on April 13. On April 22 everything on the premises—from the vending machines to the bowling pins—is going to be auctioned off. More details at MyBallard. At least one industrial-strength ball polisher is going to be auctioned off. So if, um, you've got industrial-strength balls and they're in need of regular polishing, you're not going to want to miss this auction....

Or at least crush a beer can.

My boss when I worked in a bowling alley (a PBA Hall-of-Famer named Bill Allen) used to take the worn-out pins home and use them as firewood. He died waiting for a new liver.

Homer thinks for a moment, while his shiny noggin reflects an image of the alley around him

"Um, noooooo."

"Okay, then."

I purchased them for $2.75 out of the vending machine at the Sunset. They were dispensed and packaged in a ziplock sandwich baggie. I still love that.
