A Michigan-based businessman has created the world’s first mobile
bowling alley by converting a 53-foot, semi-truck trailer into an
exclusive entertainment center on wheels.
Inspired by popular companies like such as Amazon, Uber and Grub Hub,
which relied heavily on convenience to achieve business success, a
Detroit entrepreneur decided to bring bowling to the masses, instead of
the other way around. To this end, Terence Jackson Jr. has been working
on converting a 53-foot semi-trailer truck into a mobile bowling alley
for years, but due to several obstacles he had to overcome, the two-lane
facility was only unveiled last month.

“It was a difficult process building the bowling alley at certain times,
because lumber, certain materials and products weren’t available because
of the pandemic but we eventually got it done,” the 34-year-old
entrepreneur said.
Luxury Strike Bowling consists of a dual automatic bowling lane, scoring
system, temperature control, neon lighting, 80-inch theater screen, a
sky lounge and a state-of-the-art sound system. Because of size
constraints, the two lanes are shorter than those of traditional bowling
alleys, and the bowling balls are smaller and slightly lighter than
regular ones.
