Duckpin Bowling in White Oak

Ok, so it may be lowbrow entertainment, but it is still fun as hell. I am talking about the duckpin lanes located in the White Oak Shopping Center on New Hampshire Ave. Duckpins have always been a regional sport and the little brother to tenpins which people seem to always prefer. However, duckpins is cool! And, much harder than tenpin bowling. There are not many duckpin lanes left in the area. One of the few left around is the White Oak Lanes, a real old school bowling ally where you still have to keep score with a pencil. Sited down in the lower bowels of the shopping center the place feels like you are back in the 1960s. Go check it out. The little bowling balls feel great and are small enough for any kid to hurl down the lane. If you score over 100 then you have had a decent game.
