That’s how we roll: Bowling bonanza with Google New York

After all the fun we had playing Skee-Ball in August, we thought about other group activities that would pretty much guarantee a great time. This time we decided to add wacky footwear into the mix and throw a bowling bonanza!

We teamed up with Hell & Heartaches, a blog dedicated to pop culture and local goings-on and held a contest for up to 30 people to win a night of bowling, drinks and pizza. The big day came and we gathered at The Gutter, an old school bowling alley in Brooklyn.

Many folks decided to show their solidarity by wearing their Google Places striped socks (we brought extra for those who did not already own a pair). Since there was going to be some heavy lifting involved, we needed fortification, so pizzas were ordered from Patricia’s. Then it was time to put on our bowling shoes!

 

There were gutter balls a-plenty, but quite a few strikes as well. In the end the winner was ... well, really anyone who came out to play that night.

Thanks to everyone who came out to our bowling bonanza and to the kind staff at The Gutter. We had a ball!
