Red Rock Bowling UYE Part 2

Cleaner than most bowling center. Very safe feeling environment. Good for families. The night bowling is a lot of fun for the kids. Prices are a little high but worth it and there are deals sometimes.

I love this bowling alley, and not just because it’s in one of my favorite casinos. The lanes are well-​kept, and clean. The drink prices are reasonable, and the staff is great.

What’s to be said that hasn’t already been said… this was a great event put on by a great guy; thanks Roger. Not only did I have a chance to show off my, what I have since learned to be, «girl-​like bowling skills» but also had a chance to meet some new and great people from the Unilocal community. I just want it to be clear that despite my lack of skills I still had the third highest score over the 3 games we played. Of course my 3 games all totaled up didn’t even reach one of Rogers but hey, he had his own equipment and that makes up for a lot :-) The second highest scoring player was Kevin B… let’s face it, he’s from Canada and perfecting indoor sports is kind of one of their things up there.
Pimps, ho’s and smack talkers (Kevin P. I’m looking at you bro!) alike in the background made this event epic. Looking forward to Part 3… thanks again.

Yeah yeah yeah… this was a while ago. Better late than never… been slackin!
So I showed up right after work and grabbin a quick bite, and got there when everyone’s first game was ending.
Soul and I played 2 games, with the most eventful being the last of course.
The so called «pimp» saw Soul playing and thought he was just as adorable as he was lol… but decided to hook him up with a couple $ 20 bills! Since I suck at bowling for the most part, it’s probably one of the first times I have gained money bowling! LOL
Thanks Roger for setting it up, and there was a huge turnout, even if not everyone was playing. We had fun, and will try to be at the next one :)

I may be the worst Unilocaling bowler of All-​time, but fuck it — I had fun.
This was only my third UYE and one thing I can say for certain: each and every event put on by a hard-​working Unilocaler is unique, fun, and great times with cool ass people.
This one was organised by Roger. No need for a surname initial. It is Roger; there is only one. You better recognise.
Back to my bowling, since this is what the event was about. I had the lowest score. The lowest. I was probably worse than the ladies of the night in their sky high heels that STARTED playing after 2AM. (And I don’t mean any Unilocalers that arrived late)
A lot has said about our unofficial guests. I must say that is just donned on me in an unrelated Talk thread that we could have tried to get him to check-​in to the UYE. You imagine if this guy, possible escort manager, was unleashed on the Unilocal universe? Where would he check-​in?
Back to bowling. I need a handicap like they do at Punk Rock Bowling. How do they make their balls curve like that? Even Soul H. possibly got a higher score than me and the Brooks trail-​running shoes I took to this UYE were older than him (and currently are valued less than what our UYE guest in pink silk shirt gave him in crisp Jacksons). — E

First of all, thanks Roger for putting together this event. It has been over 10 years since I have bowled. And, Unfortunately, it showed. I don’t think I broke 100 in the first game. I was the king of the gutter balls. But, I did alright the 2^nd game as I almost had 3 strikes in a row. Good times!
It was great seeing some people that I have already met and a few faces that I see in my check-​ins page. It was an interesting night to say the least. From, pro bowlers with kidney stones, novice bowlers wearing rented shoes, peeps just coming to hangout and have a few drinks, and a pimp with his «girlfriends». One wearing heels while bowling. I love Vegas!
With all of that said, it was an absolute blast. Next time, 2 games not 3 will be what the night will call for. It became eternal — 10 pm to 2 am. Gotta’ love it.

I was the only one who remembered when Unilocal shut down half to three quarters of Red Rock Lanes for a Unilocal event! It was also where we got our Unilocal watch swag. We also had tastings for three of the restaurants here at that time. This was a 1 star event compared to that. No beer pitchers waiting for us, no light bites, no swag (even though someone almost walked out with one hahaha), I’m kidding. Time flew by! Good company, funny and insightful stories, beer, a lame bachelorette party, and a pimp with his products made this a good time to be had at Roger and his families UYE.
I am sooooo damn fun! And the people who attended were okay too. But the best buds were the ones who I got to drink with. I’m messing, you’re allllll coooool.
Oh gawdd but then by the end of the night a pimp with an overabundance of arrows in his quiver (so to speak), louder than I and other Unilocalers you know who are loud, showed up after the 1AM cut off time with his night walkers. I don’t know how many hours those hardworking ladies had to work for the three $ 20 bills he gave baby Soul throughout the night but that is not spending hard work money wisely!
The next time a bowling UYE goes down people should probably buy one game and then add more when it comes close to the end, people looked tired after the first game and a half haha. Some improved after consuming more beer, that’s like me!
But wait, back to the pimp, he was not a perfect example for baby Soul when he grows up! He was using profanities, bowling in his socks (safety first!), baahaha jk he was a funny character. I also wanted to see him slip and fall so he can slap a uhhh yea. Wish he was there sooner when the group of three ladies were there for a bachelorette party. He could have easily turned them into his employees. The ladies he was with had that fake laugh and clapping going on, almost like they would get hit if they didn’t clap after he attempted to be funny. I kid, I kid!
To everyone I already knew, nice seeing you again. To everyone who stopped by just to say hi like Jade and Scott; heyyy. To all the bowlers, quit sandbagging and play serious, not! To all the drinkers, cheers! To the new people I met, hi. Hah but if you do attend with a group this big expect some downtime rather than the consecutive bowling attempts, so buy a beer pitcher and mingle.

Some people say that most sequels don’t do the original justice. Well folks, I for one am here to tell you that this second installment was way better than the first!
First off, even more people showed up for this one. I got to meet some friends of friends (Kevin B, Rod L, and Colleen T), friends that I got to meet finally in person (Chris R, Tom F, Edwin P, Kayla M, and Angela H), and last but not least, friends that I am already acquainted with (Kevin L, Jade W and her man Scott, Shawn H who brought his super cute son Soul, Kevin P, and one of the sweetest most wonderful ladies you will ever meet, Christie O)
Not everybody bowled, but those that did had a hilariously good time. The beer was flowing and so were everybody’s individual conversations. Lots of one liners to be heard as well. Even Shawn’s little carbon copy got to join in on the fun as well. (The bowling part, not the drinking. LOL). Of course he got to use the bumpers but if you ask me, some of us needed it more than him and that includes me for I threw about 4 gutter balls.
My wifey and BFF Riah T also accompanied me to this event. She brought chocolate chip cookies that she baked herself the night before and people were more than eager to sample her goodies. Who knew cookies and beer were good together? LOL.
Around 12:15 am I had to leave because I was scheduled for surgery to remove kidney stones at 12 noon. They said I was supposed to fast after midnight but a small meal shouldn’t hurt right? So off to the Grand Café we went.
As if it wasnt already funny enough when I was there, ironically the best part happened when I left. Apparently a pimp… oops I meant an escort manager and his escorts decided to show up and bowl? I left it as a question because either they were really bored and had no action or were just in the neighborhood. According to eyewitness accounts, the escort manager sees Soul and thought he looked like him so he started giving him 20 dollar bills intermittently while showing off his bling along with his escorts.
So overall, everybody had fun. I only wished I didnt have to leave when I did. I think the next Red Rock Bowling UYE will say, «Part 3 Pimpin Aint Easy».

I suck at bowling, but to get to here I wasn’t crazy from Angela was so worth the four gutters I got in a row. I got to meet a lot of new and cool people, and some that I had been waiting a while to actually meet! Everyone was so cool and fun– even when it got to 2 am and a pimp starting handing out twenties. Now that I will never forget.

Hey! Lots of people showed, new friends, beer! Bowling was cheap, but 3 games, WAAAYYYY too long. If it weren’t pimp & ho night, I think they would have flashed the lights at 1AM.
What else could you want from a UYE?
Also, there was a pimp throwing money at kids!
Thanks Roger for putting this together & thank your wife for the cookies!

Good peeps, funny shoes, pitchers of beer = good times!
$ 1.50 games after 10pm, I paid for 1 while the others paid for 3… it took 2 hrs. to finish the first game!
Who knew that Roger T. and Kevin L. were semi-​pros? They have their own shoes and balls.
Chris R. bowls like a girl, a good girl at that!
Angela H. had a slow start but ended up getting her groove on.
Kevin B. (a.k.a. Canada) was a welcome newbie and held his own.
Tom F. gave me hope that someone would get a turkey — did anyone ever get a turkey?
Shawn H. was late but brought a cute little kiddo, I assume it was his.
Colleen T. looked darling in her little black dress and some borrowed argyle socks.
Edwin P. had some good form and a mesmerizing green ball!
Jade W. showed up while I leaving, not sure if she played but glad I got to say hi.
Christie O. showed everyone up by ordering a ‘real’ drink, the rest of us were drinking suds.
Not sure if Rod L. bowled, but his shirt was bringing sexy back!
Roger P. was the designated team cheerleader and didn’t disappoint.
I was the dummy who almost walked out with a new pair of smelly shoes on my feet!
I’m sure I forgot someone (sorry, my bad)… but you get the idea.
Thanks Roger for a great event! Can’t wait for Bowling Part 3.

What do you get when you combine Unilocalers $ 1.50 bowling games, cheap beer (or $ 4.50 Belvedere & sodas for me: WHAT!!!) in the genteel, sleepy Summahood ‘burb? Well, great times & a Pimp and his Hos (more on the latter to follow)
Awesome turn out! Roger bowled his ass off, kidney boulders and pain meds on board and all. Great to finally meet Colleen & Kayla and I loved how folks just dropped in all during the night to hang for a bit or a while.
I only bowled a few frames for Roger or Tom because I suck at bowling and hate when I can’t do things. Bowled in my socks because phobia #9,478 is abnormal fear of wearing other people’s shoes. That slimy feeling inside the balls is «special» too. But it was hella fun. My 13lb blue ball was aight.
Shawn and his cutie patootie Soul showed up (the latter is one helluva good bowler, BTW :) The fire alarm went off for a sec… then a bit of a commotion at 1AM as an actual Pimp with 3 of his hos (aptly dressed for Ho-​ing) started a bit of a scene because bowling was over, but eventually they got a lane. Things got wack…
The Pimp was a boisterous, animated gent clearly enamored with Soul’s adorability quotient («He look like me!!!») and mad bowling skills. Pimping ain’t easy but this guy kept coming over handing Soul $ 20’s and asking for high 5’s. Clearly Shawn is not raising a fool: Soul pocketed the $$$ threw some high fives to Big Daddy («don’t he look like me?!») and had a great time.
Loved hanging out with Rod, Angie, Chris, Kevin, Jade, Scott, Roger & his beautiful wife and meeting a few folks as they left.
It was an «only in Vegas» moment for sure. Even though I suck at bowling, I’m willing to learn and would very much enjoy more evenings like this. UYEs are my preferred way to hang with my favorite folks and meet new ones in a casual setting. You tend to get to know people who genuinely want to be a part of CommUnity = on their own dime/​time and down for fun!
My vote is for a Unilocal Bowling Team with shirts that say «He Look Like Me»
PS thanks to Nurse Intoxicating (aka Mrs T) for yummy cookies :)
