Drunk Games at the Slingshot

It has come to my attention that the Slingshot Lounge has an air hockey table in their recently opened game room. I think this makes them the only bar in town that has one (correct me…?). They also have inferior bar games such as shuffleboard, darts, and pool, and soon hope to host shows back there. The acoustics in the room are such that if someone is playing air hockey, it kind of feels like tiny men with hammers are pounding away at your temples, but it’s worth it.

Slingshot Lounge, 5532 SE Center (corner of 56th & Foster), 445-6649, 3 pm-2:30 am daily

I think the Balcony Bar (that thing attached to the Hawthorne Theatre where you can smoke) has an air hockey table.

Duh, Slingshot has pinball, too. You didn't mention that. Maybe because it's not inferior to air hockey, so you couldn't list it in that sequence..

Yes, Balcony Bar has air hockey. And it's fun.

Cool. I'm 5 blocks from air hockey but have to wade through you filthy smokers to enjoy myself.

I totally smoked for 15 years. I just quit 2 months ago to spite smokers.

It was easy.
