Some people do go by themselves, while others take along a friend or family member(s).

    "That's not fair! What did you do at Vincent's? Become a pro at bowling?" I hiss, throwing a fit as Alex scores yet another strike. "I forgot what a sore loser you are." Alex laughs, taunting me as I go up to bowl. Swinging my arm back, I release the ball on the upturn and watch as it slides down the alley. I curse up a storm as I score yet another spare. "And I forgot when you became so good at bowling." I snap. "I used to always beat you!" "Did you ever consider the fact that I let you win?"
