I just called the bowling alley to give the final count for N's birthday party. They told me they put 6 kids to a lane.

That seems like a *lot* of down time (whine time) for these kids.

Man, I hope this works out.

How many kids total? -- nm - amoxy Feb 2, 11:31 2
- 16 (we have one 2 yr old and a few kids 11+, but the majority are 4-7). -- nm - kelly Feb 2, 11:31 1
  - I predict the 2 yo is the best bowler -- nm - decline Feb 2, 11:42
More kids per lane = more downtime = more drinks and snacks consumed.. (NM) - Marlowe Feb 2, 11:29
6 per? They told us 4 initially. - Will Hunting Feb 2, 11:27 7
- Yeah. (We could always rent an extra lane for an hour if we wanted to keep it at 4/lane) -- nm - kelly Feb 2, 11:29 2
  - trust me, you don't need to do that. -- nm - groiny Feb 2, 11:31 1
    - Yeah. 16 kids - 3 lanes. that would be just about right. -- nm - Jim Feb 2, 11:46
- the kids lose interest quickly either way, they will be grabassing anyway -- nm - groiny Feb 2, 11:27 3
  - Yep, and ultimately, you'll appreciate having fewer lanes to keep an eye on. - Jim Feb 2, 11:29 2
    - We got 13 or 14 parents there for 16 kids. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 2, 11:35 1
      - not that many! but yeah, plenty of parents there (plus my mom) -- nm - kelly Feb 2, 11:38
That's pretty much par for the course. All of scout outings ended up with 6-7 per lane. - Jim Feb 2, 11:24
the kids will be goofing off and shit, it is fine. - groiny Feb 2, 11:23
A few beers and nachos and those kids will be just fine. -- nm - Krusty - Most Right Poster Feb 2, 11:22 1
- make sure they fold the nachos before eating them. -- nm - groiny Feb 2, 11:23
