Saccos bowl haven -Somerville MA

Okay so......

I've kind of always been against this place. I refuse to wait 4 hours to bowl anywhere. The last two times I've tried going there was a 4 hour wait. I had to go to Somerville and I was in the area early. I decided to see if there was a wait, there was barely anyone there. So I decided this was finally the time to go. This was also my first time bowling alone, I didn't really care though. 

Well I didn't really like how the tables/sitting areas are tables, there isn't a traditional score keeping table. The pins and lanes were in rough shape, but the place in General was cute and I was okay with it. If you want a well maintained house then this isn't for you. 

I actually bowled pretty okay and got through two strings really quick. You also get a server, I think they were sad to see I was actually bowling and didn't need their services, mine was very nice and brought me some water though. 

There is a bar, full restaurant, decent bathroom. 

$4 a string wasn't bad, id totally go there again if it was slow like when I went. 

There is only street parking so keep that in mind also, Davis sq is really popular now.

Academy lanes - Haverhill MA

Well Garvey and I actually went here a couple of months ago, I'm finally getting around to posting the pictures. This was kind of a flop for me since I was in the middle of my knee injury and couldn't bowl well.

This place was massive! When I say massive I mean almost 50 lanes. We were in a part of the place where there was no cosmic happening. My eyes can never focus well if we are doing cosmic. 

It was $3.50/ string, really reasonably priced for such a big house. I'd consider going back because it's cheap! Like I said I barely bowled because of my knee, but I was still excited to check out a new place.

I actually went bowling on Friday in Brockton and didn't take any pictures, so just my Sunday ones will have to do. 

Heather and I headed to southie because it was a reasonable inbetween house for her and I. There was a fundraising event happening and there was other people there so it was a pretty full house. 

I was really surprised with how decent of a ball I was throwing there. I don't think I've ever bowled that well there before. I'm not complaining though, I will take my 107 & 100 happily.
