St. Louis, Missouri: International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame

Every sport seems to have a hall of fame, and bowling is no exception. 

This one was located right in downtown St. Louis, perfect if you were in town for a sporting event and have some extra time. It had the usual displays of bowling history, which in this country is closely tied to immigration, and honors the best bowlers in history. The car shaped like a bowling pin was a particular favorite. 

But the best thing to do here was ... bowl. The lanes (pictured) are set up so that you can try a variety of different games and equipment from different eras. 

The problem: It was moved to Arlington, Texas. Ugh.
