Started this bowling thing to spend more time with my Grandma and dad. I started off not having a clue what I was doing… I slowly started to get the hang of it and the competitiveness nature in me kicked in! Im starting to get things down and have improved my game so much this year.

Wisconsin Youth Coach Accused of Skipping a Bill After Miscommunication at Bowling Alley
A misunderstanding over open bowling fees has caused frustration for a local bowler and aspiring coach.
Cruz Gabby, who is working toward becoming a USBC Level 1 youth coach, alleges Classic Lanes recently accused her in Greenfield of intentionally walking out on a bill.
According to Gabby, the situation stemmed from an employee’s unclear instructions four weeks prior.
In a detailed Facebook post, she explained that after a league night, she asked an employee about open bowling. She was told the alley wasn’t officially open, but she could bowl for about an hour.
When she asked the cost for herself and a friend, she says the employee told her, “You’re good.“
Taking the employee at his word, Gabby and her friend bowled and left. She even returned minutes later to retrieve a forgotten phone, and no one mentioned any charge.
The issue only arose weeks later when, she says, she was approached and treated as if she had purposely skipped out on the payment.
What bothers me most isn’t the money—it’s the way this was handled. Instead of talking to me with respect, assumptions were made, and I was made to feel like I did something wrong when I was simply following what the employee told me.

Gabby, who is active in the bowling community, emphasized that she always intends to pay her fees and found the accusation “offensive and disrespectful.”
Her post drew widespread attention, and netizens suggested that the employee who granted her permission to bowl should apologize to her and her guest.
Accusations are the worst when you know your intent! Hoping management is involved on how they can do better. You definitely don’t have to explain but in this situation I see why you would want to. Character and integrity is what you stand on. Hugs Cruz Gabby 💕🙏
