© 2007 Nicholas DraneyA contestant in an international road bowling championship throws the "bullit," or 28 ounce iron ball, for County Cork outside of Ballincurrig, County Cork, Ireland on Saturday, Oct. 13, 2007. Road Bowling is an old traditional sport played mainly in County Cork in the Republic and County Armagh in the North (versions are also played in Germany and in West Virginia, U.S.). The sport is scored similarly to Golf and is competitively gambled on by bystanders.

The bowlers pass by the house I used to live in. I also worked as a barmaid in Smarts where most of the bowlers had light refreshments inbetween their rounds.
Thanks for the memory.
