"We had a blast celebrating grandsons 9th bday. We went on 2 for twosday, which makes it way more affordable. Climbing the rock wall was safe, fun and challenging! At 62 I made it to the top, slowly, and came down fast.. On my bottom! 💪 Kids loved laser tag. My son got them all refillable cups so that quenched their thirsts.🥤 The bar is rather spendy and the tip is added on automatically at 20% I believe. Over$10.a shot was like wow. Too much. Great fun, nice atmosphere, safe and affordable. I only wish it was closer to Lebanon, we'd go more often. Thank you for 10 hours of pure fun on a $2 t"
