FOUND: A Lucky Strike

Found: With the closing of the Abbey Lounge last week, The Shoegazer sought refuge in another area locale featuring old-school charm and cheap drinks.  While Lanes & Games doesn’t feature grimy garage rock, it does boast two kinds of bowling (tenpin and candlepin), an arcade (including air hockey and bubble hockey), a lounge (with semi-decent food at very fair prices) and of course, a colorful clientele.  Apparently, said clientele are not always observant when they head to the bar, because when The Shoegazer looked to begin his night, he came away with a crisp $5 bill.

Location: This bill was found below some unoccupied bar stools in the second floor lounge of Lanes & Games, on Route 2 in Cambridge.

Source: Earlier in the evening it had been league night, so a good guess would be a bowler with a higher average than The Shoegazer.

Destination: This fiver paid for The Shoegazer’s first game of bowling, in which he bowled well below his average.
