Re: Is Dave & Buster\'s a super ghetto place where you live?

In dallas, it used to be very nice, like 10-15 years ago. We had our company party there when I was about 10 years old, I remember my Dad buying me and my cousins a 'pot'o'gold' worth of arcade tokens, and it was like we won the lottery. IIRC, that was $500 worth of arcade tokens or something. It had a very nice restaurant and rich wood grain finishings and a strictly enforced dress code.
Last time I was there the clientel had definitely declined. Lots of thugs/wannabe thugs. I heard a commercial on the radio the other day and it was 1 entree and $10 of game play for $13.99 iirc. I think D&B used to be provately held, and is now a public company. If so, that would explain the decline.

The one in Frisco is still really nice, but it's only like 5 years old and is in a rich neighborhood.
But yeah, the one at 35 & Walnut Hill is definitely ghetto. I think it might have more to do with the location (it's surrounded by strip clubs) than whether it's privately or publicly held.
