That's because WE KNOW IT. WE LIVE IT. WE LOVE IT. I bowled from 2nd to 12th grade--no bumpers!!! At my first 100 game I got my own ball! It was blue and sparkly. At my first 200 game I got my own FINGERTIP ball (also blue). I still have it and use it. I'd say it's one of my more treasured belongings. And I have to say I'm psyched that they're all smoke-free. Bowl on! Erie was the first city to hold the PBA tournament in a Civic Center instead of a bowling alley! That’s because WE KNOW IT. WE LIVE IT. WE LOVE IT.

I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. The Dude: Yeah, but Walter... Walter Sobchak: Heck, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. Walter Sobchak: You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude.

His last game was a 208. I loved bowling when I lived in Erie and brought that with me when I moved to Pittsburgh in 98. I was in a bowling league up until this season and was president for a few of those also. Surprised there aren't more Lebowski nights in Erie. Drinking, bowling and robes. you cant beat that My grandfather bowled at Eastland Bowl until the day he passed at age 89. His last game was a 208.

I had no idea there were so many bowling alleys in Erie that are actually open for business though. Cool! I’ve still never seen this movie ;)
