Dear #Bowlero,

Stop listening to your "average" league #bowler when they complain their equipment doesn't do what they expect it to do, then change the god damn oil pattern in the middle of a season.

Sincerely,
An Annoyed League Bowler

"Bowlero isn’t interested in maintaining the culture of bowling. What Bowlero wants to do is become the Starbucks of bowling."
