Looking for some alum sports fun over the winter? Better Off Bowling is a co-ed social bowling league for young professionals that runs on Sunday afternoons during the winter. They have a number of teams already signed up (~500 people) along with a number of other school alum groups. They've contacted us hoping we would be interested in getting a team or two together (does not have to be all alums though). Registration ends soon though (Oct 1), and the league has filled many of the 50 team spots. As Fighting Irish alums, we get a $10 off registration discount with the code:
