    An employee followed my boyfriend around the store, then accused him of stealing. Asking him, "Where's the hat?" Just lost a customer, we will not be returning.

    I rarely give reviews, especially negative, but stood and watched a guy with a headset talk to an employee and waited and waited and waited for assistance with sunglasses. We had planned to purchase Costa sunglasses, 2 toboggans, a blanket, and 2 $50 gift cards. You lost big because employees continually ignored us! We won’t be back to this Academy store. Incredibly disappointing!

    Bought a pair of soccer shoes my son wore them for a few hours but there really hurt his feet. So I tried to return them, within the time frame allowed, they were basically new. They wouldn't let me return them and the manager said "yes this brand isn't good in not surprised he doesn't like them." So they sell junk and know it is what I heard.

    I liked academy’s when I bought my first firearm as the people were nice until today. Went with my fiancé to pick up her first firearm she ordered online and seemed like the manager at the counter was racially profiling me and automatically assumed my fiancé was buying it for me saying it’s illegal to purchase and sell to another like we weren’t aware of it. Put both of our names for no sale for firearms at any academy’s (I voluntarily did because of how upset I was) all because to them it seemed like she didn’t know how to handle the firearm but in reality she was only being safe and only held it during inspection and because of me being beside her looking at it. Also because she didn’t greet the manager as well and I only did. No background check was done at all as well during this incident. According to my fiancé, it seemed like it went downhill as soon as I greeted the manager and told him my name. Absolutely disgusted.
