Turned Away

Barb went to Mark Bock's group to play pickleball because she had played there all last year and it is a group of good players.  When she got there, Mark said she couldn't play there because she wasn't on the list.  Barb said "your kidding, right?".  He said "no I am not kidding".  Barb saw all of her old friends there and they were waving at her and calling Hello and Welcome Back.  Some of her friends had even come up and hugged her.  Barb couldn't believe that she wasn't allowed to play with her friends.  I guess they have all kinds of new groups with rules now and they can keep people out.  But Barb thought she was in the "in group" and now she realized that she was in the "out group".  She got her bag and left and all of her friends saw her leave and told her later that they felt so sorry for her.  Some even quit the group because Barb couldn't play there.
