My Description: Wooden cheese wheels + Bocce Ball + banked dirt playing field<\/p>\n This can\u2019t be in Wikipedia: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Feather_bowling<\/a><\/p>\n It\u2019s played in Detroit?: Cadieux Caf\u00e9 – http:\/\/www.cadieuxcafe.com\/featherbowling\/<\/a><\/p>\n (Only place to find this Belgian game in the US)<\/p>\n My Inside Scoop:<\/p>\n As someone who loves backyard bocce, bar shuffleboard, and curling (that one time), this game is right up my alley. Unlike those sports, Feather Bowling has a banked trough like playing field that ups the degree of difficulty and thoroughly tests your Geometry skills.\u00a0 It\u2019s not the fastest game on Earth, so my recommendation is to play with good friends and a beer firmly in your hand.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whirlyball<\/strong><\/p>\n My Description: Lacrosse + Basketball + Bumper cars + Beer<\/p>\n This can\u2019t be in Wikipedia: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Whirlyball<\/a><\/p>\n It\u2019s played in Detroit?: http:\/\/www.joedumarsfieldhouse.com\/whirlyball\/whirlyball.html<\/a><\/p>\n My Inside Scoop:<\/p>\n Feeling overworked? Up to your eyes with stress? Got 99 problems?\u00a0 Well this is your game. The bumper cars allow you to get your aggression on in this fast paced game.\u00a0 Once you get a hang of the awkward steering and corner pile up this game is a blast. It\u2019s fun for all; even if you are the cherry picker who only shoots for glory, or the punisher who only seeks out contact.\u00a0 Fair warning: you will have bruises the next day, BUT they’re outweighed by the stories you\u2019ll have to share.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Fowling<\/strong><\/p>\n My Description: Bowling + Football (Duh)<\/p>\n This can\u2019t be in Wikipedia: NOPE, no Wiki on this one \u2013come visit and you can add it yourself<\/p>\n It\u2019s played in Detroit?: http:\/\/www.whatsfowling.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n My Inside Scoop:<\/p>\n I have yet to play the NEW \u201cofficial in-the-warehouse\u201d version. I have had the privilege of paying the home version at picnics, as this game has been around SE Michigan for a while. Two sets of bowling pins are set up on opposite ends.\u00a0 Similar to cornhole, the game is 2 vs 2, but unlike cornhole you stand next to your partner = more camaraderie.\u00a0 Surprisingly, big armed former football players aren\u2019t automatically the best players.\u00a0 Sometimes a wobbly \u201cduck\u201d of a throw is superior to a tight spiral.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Great Escape Room<\/strong><\/p>\n My Description: Scavenger Hunt + Puzzles section of Newspaper + Deadline\u00a0Pressure<\/p>\n This can\u2019t be in Wikipedia: Again no Wiki love!<\/p>\n It\u2019s played in Detroit?: http:\/\/thegreatescaperoom.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n My Inside Scoop:<\/p>\n My knowledge is limited here, as the Great Escape has yet to be crossed off my bucket list. The good news is Miss Nellie has already purchased tickets and we are currently setting a date to test our puzzle solving skills.\u00a0 \u2013 Periodically check my Facebook for future updates<\/p>\n PS \u2013 I recently found another Detroit version that involves being locked in a room and having an hour to get out.
