Last weekend I received some coupons for free games of bowling, what a great way to experience bowling in Japan. Luckily the place, Hoshigaoka Bowling, had a website that directed us out the correct subway exit leaving us only two potential directions in which to walk. It was a little difficult to find, but with the help of an area store clerk we were able to find it. (Exit 6, walk to the left 3 minutes then up the stairs to second floor of the outdoor shopping center and it will be on your left).
I was impressed to find that it was a smoke-free facility with at least 50 lanes, mostly full of serious bowlers. The man, playing alone, in the lane next to us started out slow, but then continued to through strike after strike.
After my first strike the pins were stuck so the attendent had to take care of that for us. Before dashing out into the lane he put out a polite sign, below, reminding us not to bowl while he was in the lane.
