 I'll be wearing a hat and have some meetup signs! 

We currently have more than 100 games that operate only with nickels. That's right, just nickels!

"Voted Best Arcade in the Silicon Valley"

And afterwords we'll go someplace close for a drink.

From Yelp

"Good cheap fun! This is a great place for an inexpensive night of games. The admission fee is $2, which pays for itself on the free games in the corner. How can you beat 20 games of free Frogger! :) As previously posted, a lot of the games are either turned off or broken. But there is still plenty to do."

    The pulled pork sandwich at Rock Bottom Brewery made me sick. Bleah!

    I'll be wearing a hat but not this one!

Who attended?

    •  The games where a little ghetto but still a ton of fun! 
    •  Retro. 
    •  Too bad a lot of the games weren't in good condition- but I guess you get what you pay for... ;) If we do this again- I want to have an air hockey tournament. Hanging out at Rock Bottom was a bonus- nice venue, fun company!
