This is a little taste of pool tables in bowling alleys today, and an example of what it was in yesteryear.

FL SAY: SHIT, I came up in that crap in the 40's and 50's, boom crash, over and over, you cant fookin think with all that shit and noise going on.

Back then they were seperated by walls and it was not too bad, then in the 60's, especially in the King Louie operations they had the pool tables out where you could see the bowling alleys and hear all that noise. It never went over and pool players hated it.

Jillians and Dave & Busters and now lucky strike has both, but them have them seperated by walls so you dont have the boom crash.

I don't mind them being in the same building but I have to side with FL in regards to the noise. The noise from 15-16 pound bowling balls crashing into pins can be quite distracting. But then again, constant movement, all the yakking, hooping, and hollering in a pool hall can be just as distracting. It's all a matter of what level of concentration you can achieve.

FL SAY, I came up in an era where pool halls were quite, like a church. Now they are nuttin but bars for drunks.

Put a bowling alley in a library and see how long that lasts, or a juke box next to the 18th green at Pebble Beach. Its all bull shit.
