Not familiar with either center, but if they were as poorly maintained as AMF Valley bowl in Aurora that closed a couple of years back,it's understandable.

Sad...   but I was told that A.M.F. stands for Another Management Foul-up.   Guess it's true.      :(

That is sad,in particular Rolling Meadows.I bowled on a Tuesday
night 9:30pm mens league in the 1978-79 season.And ABT tournaments
held their for the last 12 years.I always looked forward to bowling at RM.
