You'll need a ball and shoes — but you can always rent them from the bowling alley if you don't have your own.

It's so 1970s! Organize a bowling party for one of your good friends or family members. Make sure to include refreshments for the whole team. Pretty soon you’ll be the go-to for bowling night.

While "Kingpin's" definitely a classic (and arguably the more bowling-centric comedy)%2c one can never go wrong when sitting down for a White Russian with The Dude! Fun fact: The Coen brothers shot those scenes inside the old Hollywood Star Lanes in Los Angeles. The alley closed in 2002. Bummer%2c dude.

It's is a fun way to inspire friendly competition between friends%2c and you can get as serious (or not) about it as much as you want.

Speaking of food%2c there’s plenty to choose from at a bowling alley. If you get that food craving in between games%2c there’s no need to leave.

You can throw straight or develop your own signature curve. Hint: A consistent curve is the key.
