Ball Square Bowling - Boston.com/Somerville article & photos

Boston Globe correspondent Danielle Dreilinger came to our Ball Square Bowling meetup last Saturday and has now published an article about the meetup and the alley:

The bowling alley you never knew. The article says that Green Line construction may threaten the bowling alley with demolition.

There's also an accompanying photo slideshow by Rob Vassegh: A night at the alley, including cool photos of the pin-setting machinery as well as our always photogenic [livejournal.com profile] hahathor.

I don't know whether the article will appear in print as well.

I don't get the comment about "incomprehensible" score sheets - the only non-standard thing about them is that they are NOT surrounded by ads for local businesses (the usual way alleys pay for getting them printed). But then I'm old enough to have been a kid going bowling in the '60s - hence the sweater in my icon, knit for me by my grandmother... and even then I cursed b/c the pattern books only had 10-pin designs!
