Does bowling bore you? Kirsten Easthope maybe able to spice things up. She takes bowling pins and paints "Pin Up" girls on them (get it? pin up girls, on pins!...clever eh!). sfw -- but do know it's pin up work
lol, well that's not exactly what I'd do with them...but I would definitely use them as decor in the lounge/bar that I still don't have yet.

Actually, you're right. Getting involved with something this high-class usually leaves me in the gutter.

Sure, they're kind of cool looking but hitting them with a ball isn't the first thing that comes to mind when I see them.
I'd like some pins that have villains on them, like the Iraqi Most Wanted Deck but on bowling pins.

fenriq...she would 9million SUV crazed Dubya Drones at her house wanting to buy them...hell, walmart would be signing contracts saying "if you could just paint those little yellow ribbons on them with an american flag...oh and a bald eagle...WITH HOLY FIRE SHOOTING OUT OF IT'S EYES!"
but
villians would be cool...villians with fez's on them would even be cooler.

Damnit! Bowling does not need anything to make it more exciting.

Hands of Manos, that's what I want in a bowling pin, I want the ability to fight back. I want a bowling pin with built-in gyroscopes so they don't just fall over, they have to be knocked over, I want force fields and surface-to-surface missile capabilities.
I want bowling to become dangerous. How about if one of every ten pins is a smart and angry pin and it tries to knock you down?
Villains with fez's and other funny little hats would be super cool!
I have this marvelous vision of a Patriotic Bowling Alley with villainous pins inside a WalMart inside a Church inside a liquor store/kid's toy store.
kamylon, duh, bowling's boring to everyone. Maybe they need to make pins like this but their clothes get knocked off when they get hit instead?

And in slightly related news, Minnesota becomes first in state's history (and 7th in American history) to bowl perfect 900 series.

just a side blurb. I totally suck at bowling. I'm left handed, my wrist turns when I launch the ball out and I hate the shoes!
My wife gets a wild hair from time to time and says "lets go to the bowling alley!" and I think "oh god, I'm going to get beat up by a guy with frizzy hair for knocking down his pins"
but....all this talk about bowling, don't you all think those painted pins are cool??? I think they are teh gratestest!
