Just like with any repetitive action, prolonged gaming can lead to sore hands and, in extreme cases, carpel tunnel syndrome.

Does anyone recall a three lane bowling alley / bar around 26th Street and Tripp during the 1940's or 1950's?

I saw that Skip. I wonder if this place had only three bowling lanes? I couldn't find anything online about it.

Actually, Fred Hansen died of a heart attack, not the diabetes. He had quite a few of them from Dec of 1997 until his death on 8/1/2006. I thank you for wondering about my uncle. It is comforting to know people still think of him on occasion.

the dime store. It was called North Bowl.I want to say it had 8 lanes
and the owners name was Stan. I bowled their on a kids leauge,it cost
3 games for $1.25.

Humboldt Bowl used to run the Hochsteter (sp?) Tournament back in the 60's before Paul Krumske moved it to Spencer's Marina City Bowl.
