Tivia Traveled To Tamworth To Tag for a TV
Tivia traveled to Tamworth to tag for a TV...say that three times fast! This past weekend was the conclusion of the ongoing fall tournament that was organized by White Lake Speedway over the last couple of months to promote fall/winter participation at their CyberBlast laser tag arena. As I always say, you have to be in it to win it, so seven weeks earlier I threw my hat into the ring and qualified with scores meeting the designated accuracy levels in five formats including s


Double Ironman Champion
I've been an Ironman winner on several occasions at several different Laser Quests, however my recent visit to LQ Danvers was the first time I've ever played two back to back Ironman games and taken first place in both! I got to Danvers in time for the 9:00 Ironman and it was a very full game. Fortunately I called ahead to reserve a spot. When I got there I was interested by their latest offerings for the holidays. There was a display of holiday themed gift cards and simply f


Detouring to Fall River
Every time I've passed through Massachusetts in recent years I've wanted to detour over to Fall River to play at Laser Gate...apparently home of the Lazer Gator. Up until now the detour would have taken me too far off my path each time. However, on my most recent trip Massachusetts was just a stopover on the way to New Hampshire, so this time schedule was not so much of an issue. I drove to the southernmost part of the state and found myself in a parking lot that...well, let'


Putting It All Together at Laser Storm Pittsburgh
I had planned to end the evening at Laser Storm Pittsburgh and this was a really great conclusion to my trip. Not only did I really start to get a much clearer picture in my head about the game, but I also felt very welcomed by the Mator family. Matt and Debbie were both there when we arrived (unfortunately John was away the weekend I was in town) . Matt showed us around and this is where the importance of the divided arena really started to gel in my mind. I walked through t


Mixing It Up at Wildwood Highlands
When we walked into Wildwood Highlands it was obvious that this is a very popular local amusement attraction with a lot more to offer besides the laser tag that we had gone there to experience. With arcade, bumper cars, kids zone and more there is plenty of family fun here and a lot of different activities coming together. Ironically, there were also a lot of different laser tag messages coming together too! The system they were running was Zone Rift, but I really got a kick


Off to the Main Event
I believe Main Event Pittsburgh has been open for a little over a year. For the most part I find Main Event locations to be pretty similar (although to me this one beats the last one I visited by a mile for one reason alone...in Orlando where I was told they didn't have laser tag). However, there is still a "new vibe" here and I did feel like this one had a more impressive arena (albeit a single level) than many of the older locations. Logan was not quite as enthused about th


Playing up a Storm at Xtreme Laser Storm Robinson
I'm going to call my visit to Xtreme Laser Storm in Robinson my first experience in a real Laser Storm divided arena. Let me explain why...my Laser Storm experience up to this point has been as follows: *Playing it as an imported system at 'geddon events *Playing Laser Storm once previously in an arena in Iowa, but it was definitely NOT in a divided arena *Playing different systems in spaces that previously operated Laser Storm and kept their arena panels up This was my first


Syracuse Members Play Pittsburgh
Spencer and I met up with Logan at the newly opened Scene 75 in Pittsburgh and I was struck by something interesting (and I say this with humor)...with the three of us getting together here we probably had more Syracuse members playing Laserforce in Pittsburgh than made it to members night that week! (Lol...just a joke guys) Scene 75 was running Gen 7 LF in an interesting double level arena. Logan and I were able to log in with our RFD cards, but Spencer will need to get his


Zombieburgh
Zombieburgh Lazer Tag is located inside of Ace's Break Away and Play at the Monroeville Mall. Interesting trivia...this is actually where the movie Dawn of the Dead was shot. As a huge Kevin Smith fan I knew that the Monroeville Zombies hockey jerseys showed up in his Zack and Miri film, but until doing a little homework I didn't realize that this mall was also featured in that movie. So for that reason alone this stop was totally worthwhile. You can actually see the outside
