Tropicana Lanes

Tropicana

I've been to these lanes 3 times now and each time I've had no trouble getting on a lane, so that's good. However, at $3.75 per game, it's expensive. Especially with $3.00 for a pair of shoes. The only other drawback is that the bowling ball selection is a little outdated. It's hard to find a ball without a chip on it, let alone one to fit your fingers. My goal is to find another location with lots of lanes and a little cheaper prices. Any ideas???

• Pros: Lots of Lanes, Music, TV's
• Cons: Expensive, Crowded, Old Balls

Late-night hours and plenty of lanes bring in the crowds.

How Big is It?
Are 52 lanes enough for you? When you've maxed out on bowling, there's near-lanes seating, as well as a large lounge.

The Crowd
The size of this joint appeals to lots of leagues, but it also attracts a lot of other folks too--high-school kids out for a night on the town, groups of friends, young, old and in-between.

When to Go
Wednesday and Friday nights from 8pm to midnight and weekend days from 1pm to 4pm feature "Fantasy Glow" bowling specials: $20 per lane per hour.

good clean fun--sort of

Nice place to spend some time with a field trip group (as we did), but the cigarette odor is thick. That makes it a little uncomfortable for those with allergies or those who have quit the nasty habit. Otherwise, a little expensive, but then the rent and salaries have to be paid.

• Pros: location, hours
• Cons: atmosphere/interior, price
