Not really surprising.  Bowling is big in that part of the country.  Someone told me there were something like 80 pro shops in the metro Detroit area.  If you have that many bowlers in general area everything should be big.  I was amazed that certain states had almost nothing and some that you would think would be small had a lot.

Yep, the Greater Detroit Bowling Association is one of the largest in the nation.  Most people know Detroit is a place with a lot of great up and coming amatuers.
