Because COVID-19 is determined to kill everything that we hold dear, Albany Bowl announced it is closing after 71 years, according to the East Bay Times. Owner John Tierney cited the lack of cash flow for most of the year and absence of government relief as the reasons behind the closure.
“I’ve spent $700,000 out-of-pocket (since the shutdown), and I can’t keep going that way, Tierney told the East Bay Times. . I can’t hold on for six more months.
