Skating anyone?

[dancerjodi]

The Netgoths are going skating at the Frog pond Saturday at 5:00 (you should go too). That got me thinking of skating days past. I've been DYING to go rollerskating again :)

I found this place from my brother: http://www.rollerkingdom.com/

So, skating and lazer tag anyone? I wonder if they have video games too (to amuse those not skilled in the art of skating around in a circle with strobe lights and disco ball).

There's also a roller-rink in my city (way closer than trecking my butt out to Tyngsboro) but they don't have the cool lighting effects :)

You can rent skates there, for sure. Rollerblades or regular skates.
They do have video games that I recall. That lasertag thing must be new. There was a large area to just hang out and have pizza, and watch the skaters. I don't know - I think it would be fun, but I don't know how many non-skaters would enjoy it. Because the music will be ultracheesy. Eh, I would love to do it for nostalgia's sake and because it would be great exercise! I wonder if I can still skate?

Heh, I wonder if they still have the games - like the hokey pokey or the races.

Did they also do the cheezy "couples-only" skates (they did that at the Wal-Lex too, though friends just would skate around together). Another favorite was the bunny hop (which is just scary on rollerskates IMO) :)
