If there was another location added, there could be a concern of drawing bowlers away from the existing lanes. Just wondering if there are enough additional bowlers to fill a house 7 nights a week?
I would think IF the 2 existing alleys were profitable in 2004 with a population of 35,000, then 3 alleys would be just as profitable, if not more so with a population of 115,000. Yes, the popularity of bowling has declined, but nowhere near as fast as the growth of TV.
