The same guy going to Magic tournaments for fun is almost never the same guy who goes to swanky nightclubs all the time. But you can find both those kinds of people bowling one night its a good drinking sport thats why

A few years ago I went bowling with friends. While bowling, I realized that bowling balls would make a great basis for my motion lab (I was using golf balls at the time). The question was, where would I get a minimum of a half-dozen bowling balls for cheap? The manager happened to be working, so I explained the situation to him and asked if he ever got rid of old bowling balls that might be too bad for bowling, but okay for a science class. By the time we were done with our games, he had a dozen balls waiting for me, for free! Now they are lined up in the back of my classroom. Every year my students ask what they are for. I act surprised and ask "Don't your other teachers have their emergency bowling ball supply lined up against the wall of their classrooms? They are supposed to." I don't acknowledge the existence of the bowling balls in any other way until the day we do the lab. And, yes, bowling is pretty fun.

Then you are more marketable and get the job. Then you get the M Ed and an automatic raise. If you get the M Ed first, you automatically are farther up on the pay scale and they are somewhat less likely to offer you a job in the first place. Either way, make sure you go to the bowling alley. It's great fun!
