Is your name Colin? Do you live in (or near) Glasgow, Scotland?
If so, you can register for a free game of bowling at King Pins Bowling, opening June 26 at the company’s first Scottish location, Silverburn Shopping Centre.
Here’s more:
On its opening day in June, King Pin Colin, the venue’s friendly mascot, will be in attendance.
To celebrate King Pin Colin’s arrival and the Scottish Gaelic roots of his name, King Pins is giving away a free game of bowling to anyone named Colin who pre-books before the opening date.
For any Colins looking to land their free game of bowling, they should email KingPinColin@kingpins.co.uk, saying: “Hi, my name is Colin”.
The company’s mascot, King Pin Colin, is simply a big yellow bowling pin with a black crown. (He has a name but not a face, curiously.)
