From Bill Geist (CBS Sunday Morning): Irish Road Bowling in WVa

ON A ROLL, From CBS News:

Bill Geist on the latest from the Irish Road Bowling circuit in West Virginia. Originally, it was a game played by soldiers between battles during the Civil War. The game disappeared but about ten years ago, but reemerged in the town of Ireland, W. Va. These days, Irish road bowling is gaining popularity across the Northeast and is, of course, still very popular in Ireland.
