The ancient enmity between man and pin started when man began using the wooden clubs as replacement peg legs, causing pins to retaliate by using humans as rides to their dates with bowling balls forevermore. Fight the good fight with today’s Groupon: for $10, you get a bowling outing for up to six people at Kennedy Bowl in Scarborough (up to a $50.29 total value, including HST). The package includes

• One hour of bowling in a single lane (up to a $25 value)
• Shoe rental for up to six people (up to a $19.50 value)

Setting pins up for knock-down since 1959, Kennedy Bowl hosts bowlers in a modern centre that features computerized automatic scoring for 32 lanes. Gangs of up to six suit up in shoes that are as aim-aiding as they are fashionable to vault balls down synthetic Brunswick Anvilane runways. On Friday and Saturday nights, the centre goes dark for cosmic bowling and its celestial atmosphere, in which music, glowing lanes, and disco lights illuminate strikes and cloak inappropriately raised pinkies during ball releases. Bumpers and lightweight balls keep spheres and lanes accessible, and Kennedy Bowl’s snack bar and classic bar furnish depleted energy reserves with sustaining solids and liquids.

Kennedy Bowl's rates fluctuate throughout the week.
