Blazer Tag boasts the largest laser tag arena in Texas. At 10,000 square feet and three levels of nooks and crannies, a laser tag game here is like no other. In addition to their super awesome arena, there’s an arcade with gems like Guitar Hero and classics like Skee-Ball. They’ve also just added a SkyTrail, a ropes course that hangs from the ceiling. You get harnessed in and run through the sky! We can tell you first hand that it’s pretty sweet.

While Blazer Tag has the largest laser tag arena, Wazoo’s has the biggest room full of bouncy fun stuffs! A 15,000 square foot facility completely stocked with inflatable greatness such as a 24-foot tall dual lane slide, an island obstacle course and even an option for piñatas at your next birthday party. RAD.

This place looks so cool! It’s like a bowling alley but instead of alleys it’s trampolines! At Jumpoline Park there’s jumpy basketball, jumpy dodgeball and just plain jumping. If you’re child is getting all lame and lazy from being out of school, take them here! It’s an awesome way to get them moving again. Don’t believe me? Here’s a techno-heavy video to prove it.
