ZOMG! They've combined video games with a tavern! When I die, will I go there? Oh, I hope so!

Ack! It's in Australia!!! Why can't one of these open up near me?

Here's a video showcasing what it was like on opening night.

And here's the website. I was stunned when I clicked on the GAMES tab to see the quantity and variety of video games they have available for patrons to play in July!

Seriously, someone needs to start one of these here. There's got to be hella money in the concept, and it looks like so much fun! I used to run video game nights at a local bar, so I know the interest in this would be high here. All I need is a moneyed chump ... er, ah ... an investment partner. Yeah, that's the ticket.
