Jeff,
I have heard one *other* story about this same amusement place (most
likely the same place you describe) and it appears that you are not
the only ones to be so poorly treated! Unfortunately, the other
incident ended up costing a friend a lot of money. Sorry to
hear you were not treated right. Word will spread, and one day these
people will find that no one wants to do business with them. I know
*I* will turn my back should the opportunity ever arise. Thanks for
sharing.
