Just&nbsp; over three years later, the basement bowling alley President Truman&nbsp; installed in 1947 is still there -– and apparently being put to good&nbsp; use.
At least 230 visitors to the White House during May came for the express purpose of bowling, according to <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/disclosures/visitor-records" target="_blank">visitor logs</a> released today.
In fact, the underground alley was used every day of the month, except five – May 14, 16, 18, 21 and 22.
On two days, May 15 and 23, the visitor entries indicate “bowling party.”
