Pack a Baseball Mitt, Bowling Ball, and a Roll of Quarters for this Journey!
In this issue, American Road® literally gets to base on balls. American Road® salutes games pitched, punted, shot, dribbled, and served, and the first round starts on a roll. "The Pinball Route: Chasing the Silver Ball from New Jersey to Baltimore" launches travelers on a path that celebrates America's favorite plunger-propelled pastime. "The Pinball Route" represents the second entry in the AMERICAN ROAD® ORIGINALS Series.
"American Road's Sport Stops" visits eighteen sports-related sites around North America that define how and why games are played. "Ten Pin Alley" chases the US Bowling Congress from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Arlington, Texas, with pride and pins to spare. Between frames, the road departments of American Road® add extra innings, laps, and rounds: They visit Hank Aaron Stadium, the Indianapolis Speedway, and one of the country's oldest miniature golf courses, along US Highway 1.
Grasp the past. Palm the present. And, grab the car keys. Be sure to pack a baseball mitt to catch that which is illusive on life’s wide, windy road, and hold it out for all to see.
