Lawn Bowling is a game where a group of people, in teams or individually,
attempt to roll croquet-like balls at a white ball in order to see who
can get their ball (or bowl) closest to the white ball (or jack). It's
a bit of a silly game, but that can be attributed to the funny people
who popularized it: Europeans. Enjoy the site (and don't be offended
if you're one of those "funny people" listed above.)
