X96 Mixer Friday November 12,2010

If you we not here on Friday you MISSED out on an awesome "Pro Bono Billiards and Bowling" party hosted by RADIO FROM HELL on X96. It was an eclectic mix of people from groups of tweens bowling in their socks, college kids downing pitchers of PBR or the die hard fans of the long time running Radio from Hell morning show bowling with their favorite radio jockeys... Kerry, Bill & Gina. All 16 lanes were packed as people rotated between the billiards lounge, bowling, the restaurant and arcade (even the adults).

The best part was for the fans of the show, getting to bowl, drink and chat it up with the very funny hosts who made is a point to try and talk to everyone who attended. Of course we can't forget to mention the awesome prizes given out like Skullcandy earbuds & head phones. 

After the Mixer people stuck around to hang with the athletes from the Utah Olympic Park that were here to relax after competing in the FIBT America's Cup! Stay Tuned for news on our World Cup Party!


 What's better than FREE bowling? NOTHING!
But free billiards runs a close second..

Live Music at JB.. Who do YOU want to hear?

Although Park City does a have a few great live music venue, there could ALWAYS be more, especially in the winter so we don't have to trek up the Canyon with crazy tourist who have never driven it's windy roads. So for your safety and ours we want to host some live music acts at Jupiter Bowl. Trying to get something in the works now for Sundance, since we one of the few venues not completely shut to public.

Jupiter Bowl.... just a bowling alley?

Background: Jupiter Bowl was hosting Teton Gravity Research's newest powder film "Light the Wick" which was open to the public to purchase tickets weeks in advance and at the door. Jupiter Bowl also makes a conscious effort to inform patrons of Jupiter Bowl via Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, our Website and over the phone (435.658.2695) when we will have no lanes, limited lanes or a private events that may close down the facility to the public...

So, an interesting topic came up on our Facebook today a guest said "Jupiter Bowl is the stupidest place EVER! They don't know if they wanna be a bowling alley or not. One night they are having a dance club the next night, they are having a ski movie primier. Make up your CENSORED mind if you wanna be a bowling alley or not."

 We say NOT. Jupiter Bowl is above all an entertainment venue with fantastic bowling! We are hoping to provide this community valuable opportunities like being able to attend a ski movie premiere, to have a great 21+ nightlife scene in Kimball Junction, be a music venue all while being able to provide a fun family entertainment during the other times.

If one looks at the major trend in "bowling alleys" they are becoming "Bowling Lounges" or "Bowling Boutiques" for instance out in New York you can visit Brooklyn Bowl which in addition to being a Bowling Lounge is a hugely popular music venue hosting artists such as Solange, Matisyahu, The Roots, Snoop Dogg, N.E.R.D and countless other local bands. How great would it be to have another venue in Park City with the capacity and ability to have these artist perform? Not to mention drawing more of a Salt Lake traffic which means business for ALL of Park City.

WHY??? would you want us to just be bowling alley?

With our state of the art audio and visual equipment why wouldn't we want host a band, or with PC's largest dance floor spanning 4 lanes on the main concourse why wouldn't we want to have a Club Atmosphere with TENPIN on Saturday nights? Especially in the Kimball Junction area where there is not as many nightlife options as on Main Street. 

With 24 HDTV's and 120' feet of video wall,WHY wouldn't we want to host awesome film screenings.


We do understand the frustration when people try to go somewhere and they are closed, that's why we have recommitted ourselves to communicating with our customers when the venue will be unavailable. We will always be available via the phone during business hours for questions about availability and you can always check our Facebook, Twitter, Blogger and our Website for event information. We would love to hear YOUR feedback on how we can better communicate, as well as other things you'd like to see at Jupiter Bowl!  We think that Jupiter Bowl has it all and we hope everyone can come to appreciate the many different things that Jupiter Bowl will bring to the Park City community.
