Stop #48; Lincoln Place

Date: January 12
Neighborhood: Lincoln Place
Pitt Stoppers: Jimmy D. (108), Josh (131), Mindy (96), Kristen, GinO, Jon, Brendan, Steve, Chrissie, Erica, Noreen, Rich (156), Todd.

Bar: The cocktail lounge at Playmor Bowl

Pluses: Bowling, a course. The lanes record both your score and the speed of your ball. Josh came out on top with a speed of 18.6 mph.

Aside: Lincoln Place, which was annexed to the City in 1929 from Mifflin Township, was originally going to be called Linconio.

Weirdness: We were kicked off the lanes a bit early to make way for league play. One of the men who came in wore a bowler. That's right. A bowler in a bowler. What could be better?

I still left one standing.

Usually it was more.

Brendan's follow-through.













Mindy is the model of focus.

















All smiles (and straight hair!)












The only salve for my bowling game.














Do you know safe bowling conduct?

Read and learn.
