I have been there once and my kids (12 & 7) have been there once (seperately). They seemed to enjoy it much more than I did. When I was there, the place was packed (weeknight). While the majority of the crowd seemed to be involved in the action, about 70%, the rest of us just sat there like we were watching television during dinner. The players were doing there best to get everyone envolved but it just wasn't happening. There were also some players (King & Queen) trying to get their lines heard above the rumble of the crowd but were unsuccessful. The food was moderately good, started with a beef-based soup that I didn't finish. Then the main course was Cornish Game Hen. It was tasteful but difficult to eat without utensils. Drink was hard to come by. The price of admission includes 2 drink refils and a charge after that. The wenches come by regularily and try to sell you something or another. I think one visit is enough. Go when you have a coupon. It is not worth full price, which I believe is at about $40 per person. I don't know if Wild Bills is the same or not. --------------------------- Judson West Section Head IBM Operating Systems TRW Space & Electronics Group ---------------------------
