Video Game Fever

Last week, my boyfriend and I learned that Grand Prix, a video game arcade with batting cages, mini-golf, go-kart tracks and a giant sling shot seat, offers $10 for all day video game play on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Furthermore, we learned that they’ve also built a bar there, so people can drink cheap brew while they play.  It’s similar to GameWorks, but I like that it is closer to where Mick and I live than Ybor City is.


We’re going there tonight, so if you’re looking for something to do that is fun and cheap, you should join us.  One of these days, we’re going to try that sling shot chair, too, but I have a fear of high places.  Of course, I once jumped out of an airplane, so I suppose being afraid of heights isn’t a very good excuse.

This is a good deal - if only we could convince them to stay open later on Thurs. (and maybe add some drink specials)... it could become the THE popular college spot.
