Lucky Strike Entertainment,
formerly known as Bowlero Corporation,
the private equity–backed behemoth that in the past 10 years has bought more than 350 of the nation’s bowling alleys
and transformed them into a
(to quote the Bowlero website)
“quirky, edgy, retro-inspired bowling phenomenon”
that has deprioritized league bowling,
escalated the cost of bowling with algorithm-driven dynamic pricing,
and accelerated the demise of one of the 20th …

How private equity destroyed an American pastime
A class-action suit against Lucky Strike Entertainment is a sad coda to the end of bowling.

I got in three more practice games. I focused on:
- Starting with my dominant foot
- Rolling instead of throwing
- Touching my nose with my thumb
It seems to help?

The economy of sports stadiums:
"The research is pretty consistent: Stadiums don’t generate meaningful economic development. When a family spends $300 at a game, that’s $300 they don’t spend at a local restaurant or bowling alley"
and
"I’d personally rather see a city invest equivalent public dollars in a museum or a concert hall—institutions that strike me as more genuinely culturally enriching."
