Like an Easter egg hunt at a chicken-pox ward, billiards asks you to pocket striped orbs while trying not to scratch. Keep your mind on the game with today's Groupon: for $11, you get one hour of pool (a $16 value) and two noncraft beers (an $8 value; a $24 total value) at The Rack at Westfield Promenade at Woodland Hills. Though The Rack offers free pool time during lunch, this Groupon still represents the best deal for anytime play.

Cue balls smack into unguarded orbs on 13 handsomely carved pool tables above the din of televised sports and beer-swilling banter at The Rack. Pocket eight-balls and execute no-look hands-free breaks while scanning 21 flat-screen HDTVs and sipping on Miller Lite, Coors Light, or Bud Light. Bar-tide onlookers and servers parading Executive Chef Elon Kviatkovsky's international cuisine gracefully parry the unintentional jabs of cue-stick butts as the state-of-the-art sound system blasts music and ambient nature sound effects for shot-aligning concentration.
