Got any “spare” time this weekend? You can bowl free today at Bowlmor Lanes, Bowlero, AMF, and thousands of other bowling alleys around the country.
Saturday, August 11, is National Bowling Day 2018 — one of the calendar’s many made-up holidays created for marketing purposes — and naturally, the best way to celebrate the big day is by bowling for free.
In fact, there are promotions happening right now that make it possible to bowl free not just on Saturday, but through the rest of the summer. Here are the best National Bowling Day deals and freebies.
Free Bowling on National Bowling Day
The Bowlero Corporation, which owns Bowlmor Lanes, AMF, Bowlero, and other bowling alley chains, has a special deal to hook you up with a free game of bowling for National Bowling Day 2018 on Saturday.
When you download the company’s BowlMojis app, you’ll get to bowl one game for free on National Bowling Day. All you need to do to bowl free is show the app on your iPhone at a participating bowling alley around the country on August 11.
For now at least, the app is only available for Apple devices with iOS. In other words, Android users can’t download the app — or get a free game of bowling.
