The fully insulated, climate-controlled theater can accommodate as many as 20 guests at a time and is entirely self-powered.

Video games aren't the only thing that Game Truck Amarillo can bring to liven up a party, though. The staff can also deliver Zorb balls?human-sized hamster balls participants climb into and roll around in?so guests can explore the party without worrying about a pet cat trying to eat them.
