Fowling Warehouse, Grand Rapids

Over 15 years ago, the game of fowling was invented on the fly during a tailgate at the Indy 500. The game, invented by a group of friends, involved two players throwing a football at an opponents pins in an attempt to knock them down before the other player does the same. The passion for the game quickly grew from that accidental one-lane novelty to the 14,000 square foot play area seen today at the Fowling Warehouse. There, they feature over 20 lanes of fowling fun along with a live music stage and the house's honk and bonk board where guests attempt to win with just one throw. The bar, meanwhile, sports a ton of craft beers ranging from tiramisu coffee stouts to Irish red ales all to be enjoyed in the 175-seat beer garden.
