| - I used to league bowl on the East coast.
I don't know how many of you know this, but when you bowl out here, your average drops 20 pins from what you bowled in the East. I don't know if it's the climate, or the fact that they have pro tournaments out here pretty often.
In any event, I've bowled in at least 10 different hotels in this city, and the Orleans bowling alleys are by far, the most challenging lanes that I've ever played on.
I think the main reason that they were so difficult, was that this particular league was an afternoon league, so we always bowled on freshly oiled lanes.
I loved the challenge, and the fact that my team took first place that winter, has no bearing on this review.
Their pro shop is good, but they're not open for night bowlers.
My only problem, is that they ruined bowling for me at any other hotel, because the others are less challenging.
Oh well...so my average will just go up a few pins.
Anyway, if you want a real challenge, bowl in the early afternoon at the Orleans.
It's great.
Oh...and they also have good French fries and burgers.
