Point Boardwalk - 2 for 1 tomorrow

[Mark_C]

Just a heads up that that 2 for 1 sale in Point is going on tomorrow (maybe Sunday as well). Basically for every $50 you spend you get $100 in credits for rides as well as some free aquarium tickets (think we got 4), mini golf coupons, slices of pizza discounted to $19 a slice, etc...

Think this year they're also doing a thing for the arcade/skeeball where you spend $80 and get a card valued at $120, but thats unconfirmed.

So my 6 year old plays this ball drop game today.
Its like a big glass booth with a rotating wheel on the floor of it. The wheel has holes cut into it. You hit a button, a ball drops, goes into one of the holes, you win that prize. Most prizes were 20 tickets, 5 tickets, etc.
First ball hits a jackpot, something like 6,000 tickets.
He plays a few more times, doing well, then hits a second jackpot.
2 plays later and he hits some kind of thing that releases 15 balls into the machine and wins so many f'n tickets, including another jackpot, that they just start using a calculator for his wins as he's running the machine dry of tickets.
Of course, as a 6 year old, the Pokeman and Minecraft stuff are all appealing, as well as 2 laser guns, a soccer ball, etc...

Tomorrow I'm looking for raffles for high end sports cars and dragging him along.
