Each time I drive past the once-thriving, now fenced-off-and-shuttered Golden Pin Lanes on Miracle Mile, it is a sobering reminder how fleeting sports and business success can be.

Over the last 10 months, it wasn’t just deserted Golden Pin Lanes that created those melancholy feelings. Fiesta Lanes, whose parking lot on River Road always seemed to be packed, was empty. So was the historic Lucky Strike Bowl on Speedway and the far east side’s long-vibrant Tucson Bowl.

Bowling was fading fast.
