Lawn Bowls Puns

Welcome to a collection of lawn bowls-related puns, humor, and illustrations.


Lawn bowls is the only game where you can suggest tickling the kitty and no one bats an eyebrow.


Let's roll out some puns.

Puns

chemicals on the green - use a hazmat
​gave up bowling - jacked it in
great shot - it was a super bowl

final shot - last ditch attempt
jack ruined the green - it was the jack of spades
lady player bowled me over

mad bowler lost his marbles
next door's rink is green with envy

no woke stuff here - it's all about bias
prison bowling rink - plenty of grasses
secondhand bowls - it's a bias market

single kitty - never been kissed
surprise a bowling ball - give it a tickle
​terrible game - was on the rink of disaster
A fun Lawn Bowls design shows a bowler in action pose about to send the bowl hurtling towards the jack. The jack is not shown because it is miles away. Has one foot on the mat, more or less the correct stance and the bowl will be true. Unless it is one of those crafty unbalanced ones! For fans of Lawn Bowling.
