They don't put up with attitudes or people abusing their lanes or equipment as they shouldn't and I can tell you from reading the other reviews that Mel took the "light" ball because it was probably an 8lb ball that 9 year olds use and people like to whip them down the lane as hard as they can. Don't slander a good business because you wanted to go abuse their alleys and got called out for it. As for the other review September 18, 2016 was a Sunday. Just like the mall (or any other business out there besides Meijer, Walmart, fast food and gas stations) they close earlier on Sundays. They weren't going to stay open just for you princess. As for the lanes, they are great. Authentic wood lanes and approaches lead to a consistent scores and plenty of TVs to catch the Wings or MNF. waitresses for the bar are good and attentive. A great experience for a league.

I was called an Asshole and was treated as though I was stupid during my experience here. You can…read moreread below for more details. My family and I went to Alert Lanes after deciding bowling was going to be a fun idea after Christmas, normally it would have been. After arriving and starting our games I noticed one of my shoes was decidedly more slippery than the other, causing me to fall more than once. That was no big deal, as all bowling alleys have multiple pairs of shoes. In taking them back up to the front and trying to exchange them I explained why I needed another pair. My reasoning was met with rude and passive aggressive behavior (with an undertone of "hey I think you're an idiot") from the female staff member. But being passive aggressive is not a reason to write a bad review, it got worse. We were starting our second game and my younger cousin and I decided to teach ourselves to curve the ball. Maybe not the smartest of moves, but we thought it would be fun. We chose a lighter ball as not to destroy our hands if we did it incorrectly. We tried it a few times and were actually very successful in doing that, 2 spares and a strike. Between turns the male staff member came up and without saying a word, took the light ball we had been using. We all marveled at this course of action considering we hadn't been rowdy at all. Once the games had ended we took our shoes up to the front and paid. I am a curious person and I had to know why they took the ball away. "Can I ask why you took the ball away from our lane?" The male staff member explained that the low weight balls were for little kids and that if they are thrown hard they can crack. I totally understood that reasoning actually, I just would have expressed that when I went to get the ball from a patron. I nodded and was walking back to grab my coat when I heard the female staff member lean over and say "because you're an asshole!". At this point my patience is gone, I look back quickly and ask "What was that now?!.. Excuse me?!" Immediate denial and butt covering ensued when her actions were questioned. Not such a happy holiday season at the local bowling alley this year it would seem.
