| Lafayette city staffers strike a pose at the decked out "Lafayette Lanes" for Halloween. The creative public servants that keep the city running came up with an impressive 1950s bowling alley concept for their annual themed extravaganza. No detail was "spared" putting together the magic: borrowed bowling balls, pins and shoes, along with a popcorn maker, candy, "beer" on tap, and clever photo-shopped images of the mayor and winning teams from years past. The "Happy Valley Girls" busted out the bedazzler to add a little sparkle to their stylish bowling shirts and named themselves along with rival team the "Burton Valley Bowlers" after street names in town, Betty Lane, Lucas, Millie and Flo (short for Florence). Cocktails, tattoos, cigars, retro hairdos and actual bowling lanes that extended into the lobby rounded out the space that usually is a bit more business-like. C. Tyson
