N.J. authorities have accused a Wildwood boardwalk amusement operator of rigging basketball games with overinflated balls and displaying prizes people could never win.
People ride surreys and bikes along the Wildwood boardwalk in 2021. That stuffed bear should have been yours.
Owner Christine Strothers has been banned from the business for 10 years and fined $15,500 for violating New Jersey’s boardwalk licensing law. “The Jersey Shore is one of the biggest draws in the state for families looking for fun and recreation and we are making sure those families are not being scammed out of their hard-earned money.”
Strothers held seven licenses in Wildwood and North Wildwood to run basketball and other games. She could not be reached for comment and state authorities said she was not represented by an attorney., authorities detail inspections at each location, finding violations at each of them.
