....I guess there IS something to do in this town!
Bowling! Bowling isn't really my thing (I bowl a consistent 60...) but I enjoy going out and doing stuff like that once in awhile. We were excited to find this alley just north of town.
We came here last night with a small group for a couple games of bowling.... during one of the UK NCAA tournament games. Needless to say, the place was pretty empty except for us, the owners, and a family bowling a few lanes down.
Although the exterior of this building is slightly questionable, the inside is surprisingly nice. Almost a hidden gem. Galactic has plenty of lanes, enough balls to go around, televisions screens for scores and animations, and generally clean facilities. It's not the most modern and cleanest building ever but isn't shabby or outdated either. There's also a snack bar with reasonably priced foods and snacks while you're playing. We paid $18 for two games each and two pairs of rental shoes. It seemed a bit high for me, but I haven't bowled in awhile. And YES! They do have cosmic bowling. Always a plus.
The best times to bowl are Friday and Saturday nights. They have leagues almost every night. I'm sure we'll be back... Whether or not I actually play is...

Service was great, had a blast. Fair prices. I'm definitely going to go again. I highly recommend . Of course my brother and I chose names accordingly. And I ended up winning. Go Wade Wilson!! If you like somewhere quaint and enjoyable you'll definitely love Galactic...

Be sure to call before you go. Also, save your apology if you’re going to reply to this comment my toddler cried the full hour it took me to get to Lexington to go to...
