Action Bowling
Bowling is a family game not a night club!

On Saturday 6 April my family went to play ten pin bowling at Gateway. The music in the bowling alley was extremely loud and resembled a night club. My family were barely able to hear each other talk without having to scream. I politely asked the gentleman on floor duty if the volume could be reduced. He said he would speak to the office and see what could be done, but that he didn't think the volume could be reduced. After a few minutes he got back and said that nothing could be done.

I found this unacceptable. This is a bowling alley and not a night club. Music should not be played at a level where it becomes uncomfortable. I understand the consumer psychology behind making the place unbearable is to turnover customers. That is very underhanded and unacceptable. Gateway and the health department need to investigate this matter as the noise levels were unacceptable to the point that our ears were ringing for a while after departing.
