A little further analysis:
If all 64 lanes were being used by 4 bowlers, 12 hours/day, 7 days a week, that would be a capacity of 64x4x12x7x52 = 1,118,208 person hours of bowling, max.
If 3 million rounds of golf were divided 2.5 million exec at 1 1/2 hours and 500,000 champ at 4 1/2 hours, that would be 6 million person-hours of golf, so I just can't see it. Even if we counted a line of bowling as equal to a round of golf, say at 45 min for 4 bowlers to complete a game, then that's 1,490,944 games of bowling vs. 3 million rounds of golf. Either way, I have to doubt that bowling is the #1 sport in TV
