Wally if its not an issue, why did you read and then respond.
I think many of those who write, whats the problem doesn't look at it like this:
You're in a bowling alley with your precious 7 year old daughter out having a nice time trying to teach her something about bowling and having a very nice time. Your little girl is an angel in your eyes.
Now the desk gives a pair of lanes to a couple of teenagers right next to you. They're having fun throwing the ball and then it starts. Holy sh...t did you see that fu...king ball hook. I hooked the fu...king sh...t out of that ball. What the fu..k how did I miss that spare.
You look at your precious daughter go up to the counter and ask for a different pair of lanes or you just pack up and leave. Asking the young men to stop is an option, but then you would be a hipocrit (sp?) But in your mind you know its wrong.
How about your same 7 year old daughter on a pair of lanes a a teen age boy and girl get a lane next to you, they're kissing and huggin and sucking on each others neck, then he starts rubbing on her breast and then she starddled him still clothed and starts grinding. Do you leave, change lanes ask them to stop of reach down and whisper into your daughters ear, hey, look at them.
You all know the answer to those questions. In some cases some fighting would be going on, some discussion, but anyone with their precious little daughter would not stay and bowl next to anyone acting like that, and if you would, you might think about some parenting skills.
Just up and leave, why, according to you, you don't have a problem with it, when its someone elses kid.
Just to keep it bowlng related, Simard had a great look at the pocket and I think he made the ball look good and the lanes easy. I'm sure the ball is great, but the lanes aren't easy.
