Changed location: To enhance the quality of this very special Shackmeet...We moved the Sat, Feb 28th Shackmeet away from Plano … 8 miles up the Dallas North Tollway … so it’ll be at the FRISCO Main Event. Please note that Google Map only approximates directions, but we’ll post a better map before the shackmeet. The exact address is: 9375 Dallas Parkway, Frisco, TX 75034. It’s just off the off the Dallas North Tollway, NW side of Main Street. Telephone: 469-362-7227 There are a lot of motels in the area too. Holiday Inn Express anyone?
Why FRISCO MAIN EVENT? Steve, Aimee, John and I did a recon on Sunday night and it’s awesome! (We were invited to a pre-opening party there due to hosting an earlier shackmeet at ME, Lewisville.)
Exciting features you’ll find at the new Frisco Main Event:
66,000 square feet (biggest yet!) with 11 regulation pool tables, two full-service (booze) bars, La Bella Café (Italian theme) which also features gelato & a smoothie bar, shuffleboard games, a Gravity Indoor Ropes course, 28 lanes of bowling, M-X 9 two-story laser tag, and over 100 video and redemption games! They also volunteered to put a Shacknews welcome notice on their indoor information kiosk. Woot!
As the shackmeet gets bigger … there’s room to grow at the Frisco Main Event but we’ll still have a comfy and centrally located Shacknews hang-out area in the facility and since the place is brand new … fewer people know about it. Shh! It’ll be our little secret internet hang-out for the night.
Timing info remains pretty much the same:
5-5:30pm: Showtime. Arrive and get your shacknews name –tag, free video gaming card and goodies. We’ll also sign you up for reserved bowling lanes and for reserved Shack group Laser-tag times.
5:30-6:30: Pizza, wings, salad & soft drinks served in our Shacknews area. That’s all included and we’ll have veggie pizza options for dognose pals. Our spot will be centrally located between the bar and bowling lanes. I’ll bring homemade cupcakes and Steve’s favorite yummy cookies for dessert … or treat yourself to gelato from the in-house La Bella Café. Bar drink prices: Beer: $3.75-$4.25. Wine: $4.00-$4.25. Well-Premium liquor: $5.50- $7.00 Also during this time … anticipate lotsa Shacknews love and a spiritual kumbaya welcome for our Gamefly friends.
6:30-8:00pm: Shack Bowling. There are 28 lanes … this will be enough.
8:00-8:30pm: First wave of Shack Laser-tag. (They can handle up to 30 per session. )
8:30-9:00pm: Second wave of Shack Laser-tag, if needed for second group of 30 shackers.

Shiney new Shacknews with well-deserving shackers merits a shiney new Main Event celebration.
My apologies if the change inconveniences you. We did not know Frisco was an option till just the other day – so we checked it out. Anybody who paid and won’t make it - let me know by Monday, Feb 23rd. We will be very sad and will miss you a lot … but will paypal refund your $15. Hoping to welcome lots of shackers!
