Have You Been to the World’s Largest Arcade Museum in Laconia, New Hampshire?
Have you ever been to the world's largest arcade museum?
Funspot in Laconia, New Hampshire, was founded in 1952 by owner Bob Lawton, according to their website.
They have over 600 games, a 20-lane bowling center, an 18-hole indoor mini-golf, and more for you to enjoy.
The museum has about 250 arcade and pinball machines and more in storage (should they ever need them).
Between the constant stream of '80s tunes and the red tinted lighting, a visit to Funspot is a glorious blast from the past.
Did I mention they have an indoor mini golf course?
And if you pride yourself in your arcade game skills, every year they hold a tournament for people who want to set new arcade game records. People from the Guinness Book of World Records show up. It's a pretty big deal.
Here are some of the reviews on Yelp about the place:
"I'm sure I'm not the first to say it, but stepping into Funspot is honestly like walking through a time warp (in a GOOD way!). The sights, the sounds, it's like how arcades used to be when I was a kid."
"An amazing experience if you love classic video games, pinball, or just having FUN!"
"The American Classic Arcade Museum is an iconic place within the premises. Q-Bert, the entire Pac-Man family, and many others are there for enjoyment."
"SO happy that this nostalgic 90's vibe has not left the building. This is one of my most happiest of places to be. ... Incredible for all ages."
Check out Funspot on 579 Endicott Street North, Laconia, NH 03246.
Keep calm and game on.
