Candlepin was so popular in New England that they had candlepin competition TV shows on Saturday mornings after the cartoons.
A short documentary film was recently made about candlepin bowling in Maine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBL3O3PV3tw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBL3O3PV3tw

- paleotrope 4y agoI remember watching it as a kid. I learned to bowl (candlepin) at lanes and games in Cambridge as a kid. When we moved to Ohio and we went bowling (tenpin) I was soooo confused. I still 30 years later get surprised when the tenpin lanes clear the pins between rolls.
