We hadn&#8217;t had a bowling date in a long time, and I had a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupon.com\/r\/uu3017670\"  title=\"Groupon\" target=\"_blank\">Groupon<\/a> that was fixing to expire. The only downside about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupon.com\/r\/uu3017670\"  title=\"Groupon\" target=\"_blank\">Groupon<\/a> was that it was only good for one person. Brian still had to pay for his bowling. When it came down to it, it really wasn&#8217;t that great of a value. We ended up spending more than we really wanted to, but then that&#8217;s usually the trick. They just want to get you in their establishment so they can take all of your money. I should just become a hermit. LOL.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/7798304170\/\"  title=\"2012-08-16 17.55.21.jpg by Ching, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8287\/7798304170_68692d8e96.jpg\" width=\"500\" class=\"pic\" height=\"375\" alt=\"2012-08-16 17.55.21.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We had an all-meat pizza for dinner that night. They were doing a BOGO so we ended up getting a second pizza (that was Brian&#8217;s crazy idea) which we ate for lunch the next day. Yes, as much as I don&#8217;t like pizza, I had to eat it two days in a row. <\/p>\n<div style=\"float:left; padding-right:15px; padding-top:5px;\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/329\/1335414\/restaurant\/Back-Alley-Wichita\" ><img alt=\"Back Alley on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/1335414\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;padding:0px;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>The pizza wasn&#8217;t bad actually. It&#8217;s not the best pizza in town, but it&#8217;s good enough that I will actually eat it. I&#8217;m not normally a pizza fan. The only downside about eating at The Alley is that the service at Back Alley Sports Grill is very slow. And, they&#8217;re not very attentive. They actually forgot to cook our second pizza. Not that we were going to eat it right then, but how do you miss that when you&#8217;re doing BOGO. Wouldn&#8217;t you automatically just make two every time? Or maybe Brian and I were the only ones who actually took them up on the offer? Who knows?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, the food isn&#8217;t too bad. If you don&#8217;t mind the slow, inattentive service and over-priced bowling, The Alley actually isn&#8217;t a bad place to go on a date. Brian and I had a lot of fun. I really need to stop buying these <a href=\"http:\/\/www.groupon.com\/r\/uu3017670\"  title=\"Groupon\" target=\"_blank\">Groupons<\/a> though, because they just make me spend money that I otherwise wouldn&#8217;t spend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brian and I went bowling and rode go karts at The Alley the other day.
