Blind moment #327

Modern arcades… huge warehouses filled with thousands of games, millions of flashing, pulsing lights, loud, apparently, music and thousands of people!

A blind guy like me, would be content to sit, write this blog, watch our food, than strolling the warehouse trying to spot the boys and wife.

Why? First, just walking ten feet I’d be assaulted by the visual cacophony of lights, then I’d almost certainly crush several feet, maybe even a quasi-excited toddler who’s attempting to see every detail of this massive indoor park!

No, I’m gonna sit, complete a blog, plan my week, drink my $7 Pepsi and eat my $21 Pizza!

This is not a blind man’s place! Let the family have their fun!

UPDATE: I took a walk through this arcade warehouse, got back to my table without killing anyone, promptly popped an ibuprofen and called it a day!

Thanks for reading!
