What would you do if the police were called on you just because you brought your kid to the gym? Andrew Cox Sr. was faced with this situation recently, and the resulting Instagram posts have over 13 million views. He had taken his son to a Crunch Fitness in East Brunswick, New Jersey, when his pushback over an ID policy escalated into a confrontation with local law enforcement.
When they arrived at the gym, his minor son did not have a physical ID on him. So Andrew claimed that he offered his own identification and a student portal profile to verify his son’s identity. When that was deemed insufficient by the front desk staff, Andrew asked to speak with a manager. While they waited, they headed onto the gym floor to begin their workout. When the manager finally appeared, it was with the police to escort Andrew off the premises.
