Well That's Cool

Say what you want about the tenants of Wellthatscool.com, but at least it’s an ethos… and that ethos was on hand on April 7th at the Bama Theatre in Tuscaloosa for “Tuscaloosa Abides: A Celebration of All Things Lebowski”.  The now annual event is not only a showing of the Cohen Brothers’ classic, The Big Lebowski, but an overall celebration of the quirky world that film created.

The night included Wii Bowling for those wanting to replicate the favorite hobby of The Dude, Walter, and Donny and specials on Caucasians, or White Russians if you’re not into the whole brevity thing.  The highlight before the actual showing of the film was a costume contest held by The Pink Box Burlesque’s own Mama Dixie, which tied the night together nicely…

If you don’t have Nihilists chasing you and you don’t have to chase down little Larry on suspicion of stealing your “briefcase”, take a look at the full gallery of photos at http://www.dsmithimages.com/site/events/tuscaloosa-abides-4-7-12/1/.

Enjoy!

That’s right everyone it is time for a new league to start. This will be our…..12 to 15ish league. Its hard to really remember when the sport practically demands that you drink large amounts of beer. The league works like this;

• You and two friends come out to the AMF bowling ally on Wednesday nights at 8pm
• If you don’t have two other people to help you form your very on three headed monster pure
  

  Hip socks encourged!

  bowling awesomeness come out anyway there are always a few people looking to join a team.

• You each bring $12, this covers the cost of the games, shoe rental and league scoring
• You get assigned a handicap to make it fair when bowling against better bowlers.
• How does this handicap work? Well I’m glad you asked, It is 100% of 200. I know you thought there would be no math but bear with us, all it means is that if you average 100 pins you’ll get 100 pins added to your score. So lets say you average 120 pins well you get 80 pins, 150 you 50 added and so on. So what ever you average under 200 will be added to your score.
• At the end of 12 weeks there are cash prizes as well as well as a big pot luck and free bowling. We also have it on good authority that there will be a special prize for each team this league. Hint it rhymes rolling fall.

We like to look at the league as sort of a midweek weekend. Something to help on Monday because shit it’s only two days till bowling and after bowing it’s almost the weekend. It’s also a great way to kick it with your friends and play one of the few sports that encourage drinking. If you have any questions please drop us a line at wellthatscool(at)gmail(dot)com. We hope to see you there.

As many of you know there are a few things that we are really into. The first of course is beer, sweet delicious nectar of the gods beer. The second however is sports, we like to think of ourselves as the thinking mans hooligan. So why not do something that brings both of our passions together bowling. The way it works is that you form a three person team, bring $12 a person (and your game face) and get ready for what we call the midweek weekend. The $12 covers shoes three games, score keeping and the cash prizes at the end of the 12 week season. You will receive a handicap based on your average that really makes it fair no matter what your skill level is. What better way to spend a Wednesday evening then by hanging out  a bunch of friendly cool people bowling. If you have any questions feel free to call Bo @ 205-886-8140 or email us at wellthatscool(at)gmail. Hope to see you there!! This Wed. May. 18th is the first night of bowling and registration. Normally the bowling starts at 8pm but this week getting there early around 7:30pm would be good to fill out the forms.
