davis_square | A Plug for Bowling (Reply)

ron_newman went to the Davis Square Task Force meeting (see discussion here) and heard from the owner of Sacco's Bowl Haven that they hope to keep Sacco's open, but they're not getting a whole lot of business these days. I don't quite know why, since I remember it only a few years ago to be jumping every night (especially Disco Fridays), but it's such a nice old establishment that I though I'd put out a plug to the 800+ people who read this community and possibly send some bowlers their way.

Sacco's (45 Day Street) is like a living slice of history, and its decor is so undisturbed from its 1950s state that it's retro chic without trying. It has lots of candlepin lanes and a room full of pool tables. Only $2.75 a string makes it a great cheap night out, and it's especially fun if you completely suck at bowling. (Trust me on that part.)

I think a lot of us would love to see Sacco's continue as part of the Davis landscape, so if you get a chance, grab a few friends and go bowling sometime. Beat my high score of 68!
