Date of visit: January 24, 2026 What else is there to do on a ridiculously cold day in Madison before a show that evening besides hanging out at an arcade? For just $15, you can play as much as you'd like, with a wide variety of games from classics that are even older than me (if you can believe that) to things that are quite a bit newer.

Most games were in good repair, though a few were not so good, such as House of the Dead 4. Would have preferred a bit more in terms of snacks and beverages to allow me to stay longer and play a bit more, but I'll just prepare better next time! read more
