    In Hollywood, FL back in the mid '80s it was Bally's Aladdin's Castle in the Hollywood Fashion Center and Circus Playhouse right across the street from it. BAC used to have an offer on Sundays where from 10-1 you could pay $5 to get in, and all the games were set on free play.

    Circus Playhouse had awesome Friday specials from 6-10 p.m. where you paid something like $10 and had a great pizza buffet and all the games on free play.

    I miss that so much.

    Puerto Rico still has Time Outs in just about every mall. There are three with 10 miles of me actually. Lots of redemption games though.
