So much laughter, smiles, and enthusiasm filled the air at Lucky Strike last Friday night during Yelp's Game Night. To ask if we were spoiled as Yelp elites would be an understatement as we paraded with trays full of scrump-dilly-umptious foods as we bowled the evening away. Whether if your score was close to 200 or flat zero, everyone was entirely supportive and cheering each other on. I so much enjoyed catching up with everyone, since our schedules are all consumed now with holiday \"business.\" \n\nHow were the foods you ask? Well I just adored the little buffalo chicken sliders and the fries with the dipping sauces. I went around to different lanes, \"stealing\" bites of the fried mac and cheese bites, which ironically looked like chicken nuggets but I was pleasantly surprised with cheesy mac and cheese. The flat bread pizzas, both cheese and pepperoni, were both thin and light. They were devoured very quickly! \n\nDraped in rich velvety curtains and neon lights that dawn the title, \"Lucky Strike,\" with paper lanterns and a combination of music videos and sports on large screens above the bowling pins, the entire venue is a sensory explosion. And as if that wasn't enough, Lucky Strike Bowling Lanes decided to pair up with Gypsy Bar and add a whole dimension to the party atmosphere. Gypsy Bar dawned a large dance floor with a raised stage for the DJ with colorful screens in the background. I think we were a bit too early on a Friday night for the watching (or more like us...) participating with the whole dance scene going down. \n\nMany of us did, however, enjoy the arcade side of Gypsy Bar. It was a child's dream coming true, being able to play nearly endless games of shooting hoops. My hubs, Bryan, set the record on one of the basketball hoops game, beating the previously high score of 65 with 69I I didn't even come close with a score of 35! It definitely made his night though! Gypsy Bar had a pretty good happy hour going from 3pm to 7pm which is nice for those of us who get off work later than the average person. \n\nAll I can say is, I'm ever so grateful to Lindsey as always for providing us with the opportunity to gather together and have fun for a game night at such a plush place like Lucky Strike and also Gypsy Bar. The service was great and I'm so glad they were able to host such a big party of Yelpers and they handled it with such ease and finesse that I wouldn't even second guess having a party here at later point in time!
