It was cool, I spent most of both nights in the vicinity of this place. I thought the whole atmosphere was awesome. The opening show was cool too. I took a bunch of pics but the camera I had with me takes blurry shots. It didn't help that I had about 5 too many Blue Moons either. Anyway, I thought I'd share a few pics of Flynn's and some other cool stuff.
Enjoy.

I know there have been threads about this before and it's most likely a dying subject, but does anybody else have pics they wanna share? If so feel free to post 'em.

P.S. I picked up some Flynn's tokens for the few of you that asked me to so I'll be texting or PMing you soon.

Very Cool :)

Was the Space Paranoids on free play or did they actually rig up a coin mech to the PC inside?
 
I would love it if it was a real place that I could hang out in every weekend. Awesome.

Yep, it straight up felt like an authentic 80's arcade to me. It had 80's tunes playing the whole time, all the game volumes were cranked so the ambient sound was excellent! Everything took 1 token. I put up the high score on DK, Space duel, 2nd highest on Robotron, and a few others (mostly the ones that don't save HS, Ha ha). The only thing missing was feathered hair and jean jackets. A few times I seriously had flashbacks, it was cool.
 
I gotta hurry up and check this out before its gone. 45 minute drive away. But damn, that place is expensive to get into and other than the arcade I'm not a fan of Disney theme parks.
 
I was actually down there all weekend. I took my daughter and her friend to Disney for the weekend. Ended up at DCA both Friday and Saturday night. - Barry
 
I finally got to check that place out myself a couple of weekends ago. Very cool. Yeah, wish it didn't cost so much to get in. My wife said it just looks like the garage. :eek: I wish, I need a lot more neon and a juke to make it close.

It's off season over there right now, so they were doing a $99 for one park a day weekend deal. I actually went over there first thing in the morning, but they don't typically open it up until 6pm. That was a bummer.
 
I think my #1 spot on the Punch-Out!! high score table is still there. :D
