What To Expect At The Super Bowling Showdown In Poughkeepsie

Super Bowling Showdown set to take place at Spins Bowl Poughkeepsie.

Bowling has always been in my family, ever since I was a young kid growing up in the Lake Carmel, NY area. Although I was never a good bowler, my mother was on a bowling league in the 80s called the Ball Busters, and for several years back in the 80s they would bowl every Friday night at Carmel Lanes.

I have lots of fond memories of going to the smoke-filled bowling alley as a kid. While mom and her friends were bowling I'd play arcade games and maybe get a slice of pizza. or maybe try to sneak into the Briar Patch next door to catch Richie Scarlet "The Emperor of Rock 'N' Roll" performing. Or there was always the Putnam Plaza that I could walk to to kill some time.

A bowling event is set tt take place in Poughkeepsie this coming weekend and it looks like a lot of fun, not to mention well worth the price of the ticket with everything that is included.
