GAME ON
Big Band & Bowling New Victory Lanes is More than a Ten-Pin Outing by Allie Spencer photography provided by New Victory Lanes
New Victory Lanes in Mooresville offers a little something for everyone at its 48,000 square-foot venue. Entertainment options include bowling, an arcade featuring 40 games and full redemption, a billiard room, a pro shop, the Wobbly Butt Taproom & Eatery and weekly events from comedy shows to big band performances. Former tour bowler Paul Kreins and his business partner Jim Wieder bought the business from PBA/USBC Hall of Fame bowler and Charlotte native, George Pappas, in 2018. Since then, they have invested more than $1 million on improving and upgrading New Victory Lanes to make it an entertainment destination in Mooresville. “It’s not your grandfather’s bowling alley,” says Kreins. Avid bowlers will enjoy the 40 lanes, automatic scoring and automatic bumpers that New Victory Lanes offers, as well as league bowling Sunday through Thursday. Patrons can grab a bite to 34
