Day two of my midwest laser tag trip began with me waking
up in Kentucky and driving six hours to get myself to Missouri...absolutely
worth it! My first stop in the Show-Me State was Sports Fusion in Chesterfield
where I got to play a little Cyber Blast.
They have a very spacious, open layout in their two level
arena and this was the first time I got to experience Cyber Blast with bases,
mines and targets (which were missing the last time I played this system). I
was the newcomer to a group that had apparently just played a few rounds, so I
took a bit of time walking the perimeter to familiarize myself with the space.
They have plenty of room with some pretty good sight lines throughout the maze.
The photos don't do proper justice to some of the cool
touches that can be found throughout.
I expected to find the bases on the lower level, but this
center threw me a curve ball as both bases were on the upper level. I found the
red base immediately, but took a little more time determining whether there
were others that I was missing. Because there were four team colors playing I
assumed there would be four bases...was I really missing that many? Nope, only
two. And since I was playing on the red team I only had the blue one to go
after. However, on a hunch I deactivated it multiple times, so I racked up some
points with that (and by cycling my shots on the two girls trying to defend the
base).
When we were done playing I admired the wall outside the
arena which was adorned with the same posters I have hanging in my studio
promoting International Laser Tag Day.
I added some cash to my fun card...
...and I played a bit of skeeball to win myself a Sports
Fusion koozie.
You know I love some tag swag!
And I really enjoyed chatting with the owner Greg and the
manager Tony about their facility, my thoughts about the arena and some of the other
centers I planned to visit while in the area. They were great and this center
is quite impressive with lots of activities to enjoy beyond just laser tag
including miniature golf, rock climbing and a huge slide for the kids. The
staff was very accommodating and I appreciated the chance to talk tag. If I
pass through Chesterfield again I would definitely return!
