HIGH-STAKE STRIKES

LOCATION OPTIONS:

• Funway Entertainment Center (Batavia)

• St. Charles Bowl

The moment you catch a whiff of that bowling lane oil and the smell of the bowling alley, your competitive nature should switch on into high gear.

HERE'S THE PLAN:

STEP 1 | After renting your lane and shoes, get the console set up. Enter your names, nicknames, or something funny to represent your turn.

STEP 2 | You can play the standard, "highest score wins", or at Funway, you can select different game variations like Angry Bird.

STEP 3 | Head to the bar to order a beverage and maybe some grub.

STEP 4 | Decide on the wager. This is the fun part. Wager something REALLY good.

My husband and I usually bet using this sentence and fill in the blank with one of the options below: “Winner gets _____ from the loser”…

1. A fully-planned date night within two weeks

2. A 30-minute massage

3. A candle-lit dinner

4. A week off of dinner duty

5. A week off of laundry duty

6. A week off of kids’ bath duty

7. A Day Trip of the winner’s choice

8. …create your own wager!

I’m sure your beverage will already be close to empty by the time you decide on a wager, so feel free to order another… and then one more. Good luck!
