    This Main event is better than the one in Independence for sure but everything is super expensive, at least before kiddos would pay to play but he would get some tickets if win and they they could get a reward with the tickets, now a days is a complete scam, we parents are paying a lot for a few games and kids don't even get a stuffed animal. It's really not right. It's not about the kiddos, it's all about money. Sad society we live in.

    My youngest son and me both had a blast here. The workers were all very helpful and friendly. Even when to the gravity walk. My son had never done that and the gentleman that helped him was awesome and patient with him.

    We had a professional social meetup here and most seamed to have fun. Food is pretty basic, has a full bar, though our group was limited to beer and well/house drinks, they do have bottles for mixed drinks. Lots of arcades both interactive machines (skill) games as well as vedio arcade games. I did not bowl but others had a good time in the lanes.
