As if there weren’t already enough to do with your “there’s an app for that” iPhone. Now, we’ve got a bowling game courtesy of Malibu Rum. In two kooky (yes, we did say kooky) commercials, we are encouraged to get our game on.

A Rastafarian-esque announcer screams, “Malibu Bowling is now a downloadable game for your mobile phone!” But in these spots, a real game of bowling is played…with melons…that smash against walls. Hmm. Alcohol? Large round objects. Yes, that makes sense.

See the spots here and here.

I’m 73 and the loneliest I’ve ever felt wasn’t the years I lived alone — it was the decades I spent in rooms full of people who only ever knew the version of me I was brave enough to show
