You mean the one by the old Wal-Mart in Grand Prairie? Too far -- the String Bean is in Richardson. Nixxy, unless we can recruit someone else (where are you, FireworksOrStars?) it looks like you're going to have to supply the good looks & charm for the entire group again.


I guess I need to pay closer attention to the thread...

I thought we were having it in Arlington this time. Or maybe I was thinking String Bean is closer...? I'm not sure what I was thinking.

Why is it in Richardson again, anyway? The girls and I were totally looking forward to going, but now we won't be able to make it.

I guess the talk of having one closer to us Arlington/Fort Worth people was for next month?

I'm heading out that direction now. I'm going to spend a couple of hours at Whirlyball, a few miles north (Independence & Parker), making a fool out of myself playing DDR. If I don't see you there, I'll see you at the String Bean at 6!

I can almost hit a driver to the Whirly-Ball from my place. That'd be great!

Except, it'd be on a Saturday night, and I can't make it. That's not great.

What is wirleyball?

I think a meet there could be fun if it involves DDR... especially for those of us who like to bring their kids.

whirlyball is where you get into these bumper cars, red and yellow, and you go around this arena with what is like a wiffle ball and something like a lacrosse bat. The goal is to get to the other side and sling the ball at the goal board, you have 8 mins to get as many points as you can, team with the most wins, it's like $15 per person for 2 hours of play time, I think like 10 can play at a time. The place also has plenty of arcade games and a laser tag arena. The place is perfect for kids.

We should really all go play whirlyball for one of the meetups, it's really a blast, they have snack bar too so we wouldn't starve.

Well, I think it would be fun, but that sounds a bit... planned. We've been having a great run at the last few meetups, but there's always a bit of an unknown element. The next one could have a dozen people, or just me. Seeing as how Whirlyball requires a significant financial investment -- that price assumes you bring at least six people -- I'm not quite ready to bet the house on it.

But Swiftmas was awesome. So I'm not about to say anything can't be done. I say open up a thread and see what comes together. Nothing ventured nothing gained, right?

Why does it require several people? Group discount?

Less than 10, minimum of 6:
1 person/1 hour: $14.95
1 person/1/2 hr: $7.48
1 person/1 game (15 minutes): $5.00

Even if only a few people show up, we don't have to play whirlyball, there's air hockey and pool and all the arcade games, so it could still be a fun spot regardless of how many or few attend. I could spend the whole time just on DDR myself, but it's just an idea maybe for something further down the road, I'm all up for the next one being in arlington, so much there I've yet to see...

Well, one possibility for a meetup would be to go to the Ballpark... but meet in the late innings, when they open the exit gates and you can basically get in for free. The only problem is I don't know if they still do that -- I haven't been to a game in a couple of years. Also, there's the problem of parking, though the attendants may go away after a while, too.
