In terms of Candlepin, I think bowling is at its all time low, since there have been A LOT of bowling centers (mostly Candlepin but some Ten Pin as well) here in New England that have closed over the last couple of decades, and many people are starting to fade away from bowling because of it. Not to mention there's also no TV show anymore, and prices are going up everywhere in terms of how much it costs per game.

In terms of Ten Pin, I still think Bowling is getting near the low point of activity, since centers are also closing everywhere especially with this economy. Plus, the PBA is on the edge right now if you ask me, since they are really trying to save every dollar they can to keep their shows running on ESPN (and they're doing some desperate things to try to attract viewers)

So what do you guys think? Is the bowling world dying to a point that it will never rebound from where it is now, or do you think that the sport will come back over a period of time?
