Bowling Alleys, at least some of the ones I've seen lately. There was a period in the late 00s where bowling alleys thought they were the shit and started charging upwards of $20/player/lane, plus $30+ dollar pizzas. Not to mention the arcade jumping from quarters to dollar-credits.
The last couple I've found have all but dropped that, basically back down to the $15/lane/2 hour model with however many players and complimentary shoe rental. One even had $5 personal pizzas (that yes were just Totinos or similar heated up, but hey it's better than $30 for a red baron).
I guess the ones that survived covid realized no one was willing to spend a nice dinner's worth of cash on a night at what should be the second cheapest type of third space available to people.
I would love $15/lane/2 hours. Bowling here is $285 for a lane for 2 hours
Shit, good thing I suck at bowling
There was an article on here about some sort of antitrust suit against Bowlero just a few days ago, with a bunch of people in the comments complaining that bowlibg is more enshittified now than ever before.
