Might seem an odd title but Insert coin is all about Arcade games and one day my oldest son wanted to go so dragged me along, well should I say got me to pay for him to go and as I had the honour of driving him I went along as well. The show or what ever it was happen at Northampton Rugby Club conference centre
When we saw this we knew we were in the right place
There was a queue to get in but not a long one
Though we did notice a couple of Star Wars Storm Troopers watching the crowd
They were looking menacing watching people along the line
Then started harassing people
Mr Smith was there as well keeping order with the end of his gun
But it was not long before we were in amongst the gaming machines
Where people were already sat down enjoying themselves
So was one of the Storm Troopers
This character is lost on me
But it did not stop here posing
There were racing car set ups
and jet ski's if you could get the Storm Troopers off
tea shirts for sale
More games
Even more games
Even older people were playing (It's not me)
first person shoot em ups
even take the dog for a walk games
The girl in the pink hair was watching the dog went off and walked the dog
These two were happy to pose
there was a dance machine though the guy on the left looked like he was having trouble
Went outside for a breather and a bit to eat and met this guy
Back for a last look round then went off home
saying hello to this couple
Quite a good time I admit and even I had a go on some of the machines teaming up with my son.
I admit I've been to a few other functions like this with him but not of late.
Hope you enjoyed my light hearted explore this time.
Wow that was quite an event.
ReplyDeleteI liked seeing the pin ball machines. That's from my time. I loved playing them. You could play all night for 25 cents if you were good. : )
You certainly met some characters and they looked as if they were having a good time! I'm sure your son appreciated you taking him to the event!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun event although playing isn't my thing.
ReplyDeleteIts really neat getting away and finding some fun with a cool video game far far far away.
