There is no way I could have celebrated the ten year anniversary of TiviachickLovesLaserTag.com without playing some laser tag in the place where it all began, at The Fun Warehouse in Camillus, NY.
Ok, yes, technically Fun Junction was my very first laser tag home, but ever since 2014 I have really considered both of these arenas to be my “home sites”, as they were both the places where I regularly spent every weekend when I began writing my blog ten years ago. However, FWH is the one that is still going strong and where I am still able to enjoy laser tag a decade later, so it was awesome to be able to celebrate this milestone “back at home” with friends who are both my teammates and active members here as well.
The actual blog anniversary is officially on December 16th, so I will definitely have something cool to share then to commemorate the date, which everyone helped me with at the start of the night. We gathered in the party room to film a fun video intro with congratulations being expressed (watch for it soon) and then…cake!
In case you couldn’t tell, this is my favorite was to celebrate…
But this is a VERY close second!
One of my earliest blog posts (back when I knew almost nothing about laser tag and I was simply journaling online) was called “Faking Photon”. This was all about my first time playing Laserforce’s Photon emulation at FWH, which is my favorite game format, so of course we had to play it again tonight! As has become the tradition here, whenever we play Photon, I give the briefing, complete with a short history of the game to make sure the light still shines!
We went into the vesting room and got ready to play. I was on the red team.
Fun fact: George Carter always played Photon on the red team too. Maybe that’s good luck! :)
Returning this night felt a bit nostalgic. And if we really want to take a deep dive down memory lane, here are a few of my favorite memories playing at The Fun Warehouse over the last ten years.
Big thanks to all my friends who came out to celebrate with me! Slayer, Axman, Mama Bear, Nobody, Fenrir, AlexBoxes, DogeBuster and RazorWires made this night so much fun!
Thank you to Tim, Beanz, Fox, Brenden, Alex, Jackal, Ethan, Jared, Zac, Ruth, Lenny, Cody, Brian, Cass and anyone else who has been part of the staff over the years who have made this place such an awesome place for laser tag. An arena is simply a building, but it is the people there who make it a place to call home. You all rock!
