‘It’s humiliating’ | Bowlero faces $80mn in lawsuits from ex-employees who claim they were fired for being too old

Bowlero, the world’s largest bowling center operator, is facing dozens of individual age discrimination lawsuits after the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) closed its nine-year investigation.

The attorney representing over 70 employees – who say they were fired due to their age or their plans to sue the company – stated on Monday that while the EEOC has closed its case, the individual claimants now plan to exercise their right to sue.
