Looneys Super Skate Center, Montgomery

Though it has been open since 1941 and is still managed by a member of the original family, Looneys Super Skate Center has managed to avoid becoming a relic. Perhaps moving three different times has forced it to keep up with the times, or perhaps it's just that the staff keeps its finger on the pulse of what their customers want. Where an organist once accompanied skaters on a Hammond, today high-tech speakers pump out top 40 hits as guests glide around the rink. And while kids still enjoy playing Simon Says, doing the Hokey Pokey, or doing figure eights and quadratic equations on the rink, they can also take a break at the redemption arcade or inside the bounce houses around the perimeter.
