Every week the damn thing breaks down. At the time I laughed, but let me tell you what makes us so grouchy. We're grouchy when younger people race to beat you through the door of the center and then let the door close in your face.
Common courtesy is a learned trait.
It starts at home. We get a little testy when all the seats, tables and even counter space has been taken up by the proliferation of bowling balls. When centers opted to move the smokers out of the bowling circle it became the place to stack the spare ball, the ball for the 10-pin only and of course the ball that only strikes on the right lane. We're fed up with bowlers who want to do everything except bowl. When you bowl in a traveling league and drive 1-2 hours to get there, the locals think it's okay to spend the better part of the day drinking, watching football and playing video games.
