Why are there two red stripes on a bowling pin?
Their sole purpose, according to Al Vanderneck, of the American Bowling Congress, is to look pretty.

The area where the stripes are placed is known as the "neck," and evidently a naked neck on a bowling pin stands out as much as a tie-less neck on a tuxedo wearer.
