“Bolognese” should not be pronounced “bowlin’ ace,” but there are jokes. “Bowlin’ Ace” was posted on Twitter by John Feeley on November 6, 2015. “Did you hear about the pasta sauce that was really good at knocking down pins? It was a bowlin’ ace” was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on August 6, 2020.
Other “Bolognese” puns include “Spaghetti Bollock-Knees” and “What kind of pasta is made from horses?”/“Spaghetti bowl o’ neighs.”
Wikipedia: Bolognese sauce
Bolognese sauce (UK: /ˌbɒləˈneɪz, -ˈnɛz/, US: /ˌboʊlənˈjeɪz, -ˈniz/; known in Italian as ragù alla bolognese, pronounced [raˈɡu alla boloɲˈɲeːze], ragù bolognese, or simply ragù) is a meat-based sauce in Italian cuisine, typical of the city of Bologna. It is customarily used to dress tagliatelle al ragù and to prepare lasagne alla bolognese. In the absence of tagliatelle, it can also be used with other broad, flat pasta shapes, such as pappardelle or fettuccine.

Did you hear about the pasta sauce that was really good at knocking down pins?
It was a bowlin’ ace.
