Naked Bowling – It Really Is A Thing

Who's ready for naked bowling? Yes, you read that right. Naked bowling is actually a thing.

I’m not a “big” bowler.  I’ve done it.  As a matter of fact, in elementary school, there were days we went “duckpin” bowling.  Smaller balls, smaller pins.

But as far as heading to a bowling alley and playing, not much.  And I’m pretty sure that I’m not going to go bowling nude.

Oh, you haven’t heard?  The Pittsburgh Area Naturalists group has rented a bowling alley for their “Balls Out Bowling” night.  In case you’re interested, it’s April 28^th.

Anyone that wants to can participate.  They will have to purchase a $25 ticket in advance.

The group says “Balls Out Bowling is the ultimate bowling experience for anyone who loves to have fun and show off their skills in the buff.”

Nudity will be required (with the exception that women can wear bottoms).  They would also like you to bring a towel and a bag for your belongings.

It’s open to bowling fans of all skill levels who are over the age of 18.

Can you see yourself naked, wearing rented shoes?

On a serious note, the group says that safety and privacy are paramount during the event, with no photography or video recording allowed.

They also say that sexual activity will not be permitted.  Nudity does not equal consent and will not be taken lightly.  Violators will be asked to leave, after they get dressed.

Now, naked bowling might be an extreme, (might?), but are there activities or adventures that you would like to challenge yourself by partaking in?  Why haven’t you?  Are you concerned for your safety?  Is it a financial issue?  You can’t find someone to wants to do it with you?  What’s holding you back?  I can think of a few things holding me back from participating in “Balls Out Bowling”, but that doesn’t mean I’m not open to trying  something for the first time.

There is a place for the people that love reading books, there is a place for people that love playing pool, but what about the people that love games? Well, we might know a place or two. We're calling all gamers to learn about these gaming centers in the CSRA.

A gaming center is a place where people can come together to create a community, play games, and have tournaments. Esports and LAN gaming has been growing a lot. For example, colleges offer Esports scholarships, and some of those colleges even have gaming labs. High schools have implemented Esports as an elective. There are even pro teams that are created in the gaming world that compete for millions in cash prizes. In the US there are over 650 gaming centers, and the CSRA is a part of that growing number.

Fortnite, 2k, Mortal Combat, you name it – gaming developers are continuing to create new projects which will keep these game rooms around for a while. These gaming rooms consist of PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Virtual reality, retro games, and arcades.
