Gladiators have been around for a while, but have not been to a game yet... until last night at Gas South Arena in Gwinnett. Tickets are reasonable & plenty of price points for all budgets. Parking, $15.00. Pics & a fun video of a fight will show some of the experience. The arena had food/beverages so nobody will be hungry. Beer was $$, as normal now... stinks!!! This is a fun night for a date night, families, a night to relax (lol, crowd gets into it). 3 20 minute periods in a game with 2 20 minute breaks between each period. Entertainment between periods & of course the Zamboni. Mascot runs around & he will take pics if you ask. A little chilly inside, but not bad. I'm excited to go again before the season ends.

Cool Play Area For Kids…read more I'd give it 3.5 stars but 3 is love so I have 4. Facts: $16 for my 4 year old. Positives: Alexander says his favorite part is the jump around floor video game. And air hockey. Fun little obstacle course line in the beginning. Alexander loved running and jumping on it. Octagon bounce jumper is good due groups of kids together. The end blowup the coolest part. Climb up and slide down inflatable. My son loved the cotton candy machine! Reasonable priced food court. We didn't get food to rate it. Negatives: Viking axe throwing needs some new Velcro in the axes. They don't stick anymore. Would be cool. Foosball Table needs some replacement bolts from ace hardware. Bathrooms need better bleach cleaning. Tips to business: The negatives are easy fixes. Then a couple more add on items to fill the place out would make this place great for the little ones.

The bouncy houses, the jungle gym and even the food area was nice. He also got pizza and a juice box (which was included in the ticket I purchased online). For only $16 plus tax you can't beat that. The ticket was for all day play as well, so we could stay as long as we like. I enjoyed so much I can't wait to come back. The customer service was really good too, which is very important. The workers/owners were really nice and attentive Bathrooms were pretty clean as well for it to be a children's place, I appreciated that a lot!

I was worried that he was be stuck with only one play area but beside the dodgeball, go kart and foam pit, he was able to go between each other area and get his energy out. The service was nice, our party attendant was sweet, it wasn't too crowded (even on a Saturday). Each parent made plans to come back.

I compare Jumping World to Altitude, which is where I normally go in my neighborhood. Altitude in East Cobb has similar concepts but focuses on primarily jumping on one level. Jumping World, tries to do a number of additional activities including, video games, go carting, bull riding, water weasel wheeling, ninja course, and kids must navigate them on their extensive carpets. Water fountain and bathrooms are centrally located. There is a snack bar with sweets, drinks, and some fast food choices. For birthday parties the pizza was the choice. If you need your kids to release some energy this is a good local option.

I attended the Atlanta United Opening Training event on Thursday evening, February 15, 2018. It was…read moremy first chance to check out the team's new training facility, officially known as the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Training Ground. Construction began in February 2016 and the training facility opened on April 11, 2017. I've worked off of Franklin Gateway (formerly Franklin Road) since 2001. In recent years, I've watched Franklin Gateway transform, mainly with the demolition of several old apartment complexes (that's where the land for this training facility came from). With this $60 million training facility and the new $11 million Franklin Gateway Sports Complex now open and metro Atlanta's second IKEA store and a three-story driving range and sports entertainment center on the way, Franklin Gateway is really changing. Unfortunately, the training ground isn't open to the public. The only way that I and a couple thousand other folks got to see it is because of the special Atlanta United Opening Training event. Tickets to this event were made available only to Atlanta United season ticket holders and I was able to snag a couple tickets from a season-ticket-holding friend who wasn't able to go. Since parking is limited at the facility, we were instructed to park at Six Flags White Water, about 2.5 miles north, and shuttle to the event. Even Lyft and Uber drivers were directed to Six Flags White Water. This worked out pretty seamlessly. Security checks and ticket scanning took place at Six Flags White Water and not at the training ground itself. I was looking forward to checking out both the inside and outside of the facility, but we were only allowed to check out certain sections of the outside. There are six full-sized soccer fields at the training ground. I pass them every weekday morning on my way into work. On all of my commutes into work as well as occasionally passing by on my way back in to work from my lunch breaks and leaving work, I've never seen anyone out on the fields except for one time (and it was just one person). The open training took place on the training ground's one "show pitch" (exhibition playing field), which is not visible from the road. The show pitch has a 2,500-seat stand - sort of like high school bleachers, but nicer - on one side of the field. The owner, Arthur Blank (who was present and spoke to us at the event), staff, VIPs, and special guests got to watch the event from a fancy glass building that overlooked the pitch. Sports talk radio station 92.9 The Game was on-site broadcasting, there was a DJ, several food trucks, and a pop-up team store/trailer. The grounds were clean and the buildings looked new, modern, and state-of-the-art. Walking around, enjoying the sights and sounds, it was hard to believe I was on Franklin Gateway (I still have the urge to call it Road). There was an MC, we watched videos on a video board (for a new facility for a Major League Soccer team, the video board was mindboggingly small), and at least one of the players addressed the crowd. As for the open training itself, props and training tools were set up on the field and we watched as the coaches ran the players through various drills (in Spanish). Players who weren't doing drills gingerly jogged around the perimeter of the field. Once that was over, the team scrimmaged. What I liked most about the event was how close we were to the players and coaches. The training ground is an intimate venue. As the players practiced and jogged, they also interacted with us. Along with being the home for the Atlanta United first team and club staff, the training ground is also home for the club's youth academy teams (U-19 through U-12).

Wow, what an incredible experience! I would give it 10 stars if I could! They have a full,…read moreOlympic-size curling court with three lanes. A group of friends and I took their Learn to Curl class and it was so much fun. I went into it honestly being not that enthused but left feeling so happy and like I want to come back again. It is so worth coming out to Marietta to try this! The people that work there are incredible. They walk you through every aspect of curling and by the end, you end up being a curling (wannabe) pro. They keep the place opened from about fall to spring but then shut down for the winter. It's a lot easier to walk on the ice than it looks and they ensure your safety the entire time. Definitely come check this place out, whether for a date night, friends night out, or even a solo adventure. You'll be put with a group and have the best time regardless. I recommend bringing lots of layers and gloves because it's cold in there.

--Location/Parking-- Located in the trifecta of Marietta,…read moreSandy Springs and Roswell next to the Trampoline park. Situated inside a frigerated warehouse behind the trampoline park, it is easy to miss because the park is a huge venue. GPS to the trampoline park and look behind the park is where the curling venue is located. --Ambience-- Inside a refrigerated warehouse sits a rectangular ice ring divided into 3 lanes, which can house 6 groups. The lounge area is perfect to watch the different groups from one side. I saw several other groups bring their own beverages. I highly recommend for friends and family to hang out and drink and learn to curl. Remember to keep your drinks off the ice. --Service/Staff-- Shout out to Walter for inviting us to curl and teaching our group to learn how to curl. Walter was super patient and taught each one of our team members how to sweep and more importantly how to launch the stone. Our whole group was new to curling and Walter taught us the roles and how to score and was extremely patient with a lot of us since this was our first-time curling. Curling follows the same rule or closely follows the rule of botchi ball. --Products-- Great value if you want to learn a unique winter sport of curling. Each individual has to sign up online, but the price is worth the lesson and plus you get to compete against another team/group that has signed up that night. From our time we managed to get through 6 rounds and were not even rushing and I can see from our two teams we were all beginners. --Capacity-- We went on beginners' night on Friday at 7pm. There are 3 lanes and diving each lane makes it 6 groups. With each group or party having 6 people. You rotate through the roles of captain/skim, two sweepers and one person launching the stone. --Overall-- If you are looking for a unique winter sport, remember this place is only open from late September to May, this is a great place for your friends and you can bring your own drinks along. I highly recommend gloves, dress warmly and everything else is provided. Remember to have fun!

Confirmed Field Trip, Not Open, and No Real Solutions…read more We were really excited to bring our first grade class here for a fairy tale field trip, and it ended up being incredibly disappointing. We had a confirmed 10:00 AM reservation and even called to confirm both the day before and the morning of. We arrived early with 42 students and 8 adults and were told to enter through Dillard's--only to find it closed. We then had to walk our entire group around the building and through the mall. When we arrived, the experience was completely dark and not set up. At 10:15, we were told the characters "weren't ready yet" and asked to wait. That turned into being asked to wait until 11:30. Managing that kind of delay with 42 first graders--especially with rotating groups--is simply not realistic. Some of our students would have been waiting well over an hour. What made it worse was the lack of meaningful solutions. We were offered 50% off their maze next door (after already paying a significant amount for the experience), but couldn't even access it right away. The only free option suggested was a toddler play area, which was not appropriate for our students. At that point, we had to ask for a refund and completely pivot. We ended up taking the kids to a park just so they could eat lunch and play. Many of them were confused and upset--some were even crying. Field trips take a lot of time and planning, and we chose this experience specifically to connect to our fairy tale unit. It was incredibly frustrating to lose both the experience and a half day of learning due to poor communication and lack of preparation. I would strongly caution any school or large group before booking here.
