- tempestn 9y agoIt really is fun to at least try. I've only gone once, but had a blast.
- flukus 9y agoFor anyone that lives in a warmer climate, can't ice skate or wants more to watch I'd suggest you checkout lawn bowls (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowls https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowls). The games are very similar and typically people that like one like the other.
- SubiculumCode 9y agoMaybe, that is they add a lawnmower or rake in front of the bocci ball. :-)
- peeters 9y agoCommon mistake, but lawn bowling is very different than bocce. Bocce balls are uniform spheres that you can either roll or lob. They travel in a straight line. Lawn bowling balls are oblate spheroids that are weighted on one side so that they will always curve in a certain direction (more for light throws, so you can draw around a guard like in curling). They are always rolled. So it really is a lot more like curling than bocce, though granted there is nothing analogous to sweeping.
- SubiculumCode 9y agoThanks. Didn't know.
