Get ready to lace up your bowling shoes and head over to Premier Lanes Entertainment Center on Saturday for a celebration of National Bowling Day.

From open to close, bowling enthusiasts can enjoy games for just $3 per person. If you work up an appetite, you’re in luck: pizzas are $2 off all day long. Quench your thirst with special frozen drinks and grab an $8 refillable bowling pin cup—available while supplies last.

Bowling has a rich and varied history. Though its exact origins are unclear, archeologists have traced the sport back to ancient Egypt. The game evolved over the centuries, with nine-pin bowling becoming popular in Germany and later spreading throughout Europe. European colonists brought the game to North America, where it was played both indoors and outdoors.

Today, the United States Bowling Congress (USBC), formed in 2004 from the merger of several national organizations, promotes and develops the sport for all bowlers. National Bowling Day is a testament to the enduring appeal of this classic pastime.
