If you want to get a classic game fix, there's a restaurant/bar called Zanzabar in Louisville that has nearly 2 dozen games. Among the list: Ms Pac, Galaga, Asteroids, Popeye, Defender, Joust, Joust 2, Asteroids Deluxe, Tron, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr, Eagle, Centipede, Missile Command, Space Invaders, and a couple others, plus a few pins.
Yes, I highly recommend Zbar. Very cool place. Great food and awesome selection of imports on tap. Some of the other games not mentioned are Pole Position II cockpit, Pitfall 2 & Tempest. The guy that owns it "Antz" loves games and is very nice. A+++++++
Not sure if it's there anymore, but there was a place on Winchester Rd. in east Lexington called KY Game Exchange, where they had lots of classic games and pinballs for sale. Some you could even play....... but the guy who ran it wasn't exactly the most nicest person I've met either.
Dude, you're being WAYYYYY TOOO nice. He makes me seem like a saint!

In a word...... no. Lexington had an arcade up until 5 years ago, when Kentucky Arcade finally closed on campus.
True, but Ed you're one of the good ones.About time for me to pay a visit to your shop......
I played there a lot when I was at UK from 1992 to 1994. Looked for it last November when I was there, and of course, it was gone.

Anyone know what happened to the games (please don't say they auctioned them off for pennies on the dollar....)
I too missed its closing (along with Tony's Arcade)
Last I heard (several years back), he still had a storage shed to keep his games, but was asking WAY too much for them.
