I actually thought just that before When Furballs Strike II. I went down to talk with Acme's management and, while it's a fine facility, it would cost us an arm and a leg to bowl there.
Acme charges $5.50 a game on the weekends and the absolute lowest they will go on renting out one of their two party rooms is $50 an hour (we'd need it for at least two hours) so it's just not economically feasible.
Thanks for the suggestion though! I'm always open to new ideas.
Why don't we try to get it at acme bowl is tukwilla. Just a suggestion.
