Getting your family together for a game of laser tag is an easier way to keep track of the kids than ear tagging, which requires tranquilizer guns. Gather your herd sans violence with today's Groupon to Safari Quest Family Fun Center in Hammond. Choose between the following options:
For $49, you get an activity package for two (a $141 value) that includes:
- Two eight-activity punch cards (a $112 value)
- 40 arcade tokens (a $10 value)
- One large pizza (a $13 value)
- Two unlimited soft drinks (a $6 value)
For $69, you get an activity package for four (a $271 value) that includes:
- Four eight-activity punch cards (a $224 value)
- 88 arcade tokens (a $22 value)
- One large pizza (a $13 value)
- Four unlimited soft drinks (a $12 value)
Guests use punch cards to access a 3,000-square-foot multilevel laser-tag arena, a climbing course, and human-sized hamster balls in Safari Quest Family Fun Center's jungle-themed facility. Good-natured warriors harness beams of light as spectacularly as a shadow-puppet production of My Fair Lady while doing battle on the laser-tag course. Replicas of towering coconut trees beg to be climbed nimbly, and pool-bound human-sized hamster balls allow patrons to walk across water or orchestrate delicate twirling ballets.
Arcade tokens open the doors to a sea of flashing lights and digital chirping that rivals a robot's prom, and thundering ski-ball chutes bond visiting groups with friendly competition. A choice of pepperoni or cheese moves to the forefront of philosophical discussions as a large pizza sustains adventurous players, whereas soft drinks with unlimited refills erase the definition of the word parched.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: What Makes a TV?
Enjoying television is as patriotic as knitting an apple pie or eating American flags. Here's a look at some of the components that make up these high-tech picture boxes:
• Glass: A high-end TV has a glass screen that when turned off (not recommended) will reflect your image. When turned on, it will reflect how awesome TV is.
• Cathode Ray Tube: No longer needed for modern TVs to work, but manufacturers still put one in every set just for old times' sake.
• Gold: TV signals, like men's hearts, are lustily attracted to gold, causing them to fly out of the sky into the gold brick in the back of every TV.
• A Couple of Horse Bones: 'Cause why not, right?
• Wires: They hook up to the wired helmets that all the actors wear to beam their acting into your TV.
• An Eternal Flame: To honor the former TV stars who have died.
• Tiny Fire Extinguisher: In case the eternal flame gets out of control.
• IBM PetaFlop SuperComputer: Guesses when you want to change the channel, lower the volume, etc., all to cover up the fact that the remote control doesn't do anything.
• Martin Sheen: He's gotta live somewhere.
