There are many Houston sports bars that go far beyond these video game offerings, and they even offer laser tag, go carts, shuffleboard, putt-putt golf, driving ranges, and batting cages. Obviously, some of this marketing of these games is designed to draw in customers with children. The children in theory can engage in play while the parents watch the football and basketball games on TV and socialize with other adults. But, some sports bars are also building these elaborate arcades and adding other amenities to encourage more adults to come in. The Dave and Busters chain is marketed towards families, but features mostly images of adults on its website and television commercials.
Regardless of who they are trying to reach, the chain offers virtual playgrounds that adults and children would both love. For example, their Galaxian Theatre allows up to six customers to participate in a simulated battle with alien invaders. In addition, they offer large screen projectors attached to video consoles, which enables multiple players to participate. Furthermore, they have instituted a Power Card, which enables guests to play games through a debit style card, freeing up the guest from hunting for change to play various games.
Whatever type of entertainment you are looking for, you're bound to find a Houston sports bar that caters to your interests. And, of course, if you look hard enough, you can still go to a place where you can just watch the game with fellow fans, with nary a simulated alien battle in sight.
