I can see it doing damage in College towns in particular. Every Organization/ Society would pay good money to host Socials and Events there. If it were in CS, college kids would immediately think of 4ore before anything of the likes of Grand station etc.
NO. I want a Central Market / Whole Foods / Trader Joes (or combination thereof) in that space!gibby03 said:
Tear down the old Academy and Gander Mountain and put it in right there.
Lone Star Golf Academy sold to build Gander (Academy) then sold back for another Golfing venture. Looks like someone was thinking along those lines a about 15 yrs back.gibby03 said:

If it works in Lubbock is should work in College Station. I have my doubt that the one is Lubbock will last.MonkIsMyHero said:
This concept couldn't last here unfortunately. These concepts work best in larger markets.
Certainly not at the prices that Top Golf charges.australopithecus robustus said:
They would never do those alcohol sales here. They might do 1/4
That is correct. This like tihs should not be tried here. We in BCS are not to have such things as they have in other cities.MonkIsMyHero said:

I think a business like this would do great here. And as mentioned before, the land West of Hwy 47 is a prime location for this type of development. Imagine a place like this mixed with a Main Event type of place, we would truly have a little regional tourist attraction.

I think we have the best chance with the Lubbock company expanding here. How can we get this going? I would surely invest!

Nearly 5 years later, and Bryan's Midtown Park has Bigshots and is getting a concept similar to Main Event called Movie Bowl Grille.

"Houston and Austin are too close".....
"It can't be done here".....
"If you don't like it, Highways 6 runs both ways".....
We're just supposed to be a quaint little college town and hope that the football team gets bowl eligible and that the bowl is in state so we don't have to drive too far.
What this town could REALLY use are more chicken finger joints, banks and nail salons. Lets stay focused on the important stuff.
