If life is just a bowl of cherries, then bowling is a life of launching 12-pound cherry-flavored gumballs. Experience life's sweetest pastime with today's Groupon: for $20, you get two games of bowling and shoe rental for three people (up to a $42 value) at McHenry Bowl. A family-friendly alley, McHenry Bowl features a recently rejuvenated interior and plenty of roll-worthy lanes, whose automatic scoring systems obviate the need for scratching tally marks in your ball. Bring the twins or grab two friends and tackle 10 frames twice, slinging gutterless balls pinward and racking up as many turkeys as you can muster.
