Gentlemen,
I will make this very quick + simple so that you can get back to checking your Fantasy baseball stats. And, I’ll use lots of pictures.
Seriously, though, I’d like to help you plan your third date with that special someone, so please allow me two minutes of your time…
My rule of thumb is that the first date is always for weekday or Sunday night drinks. Apres Diem, TAP, the bar @ JCT Kitchen and Top Flr are my suggestions for that. Drinks only. Food complicates the first date, you have the potential to get something stuck in your teeth (heaven forbid!) and you want to be able to escape quickly after that second drink if the date is less than ideal. Let’s be realistic, folks, time IS money. Also, if you are a serial dater, it’s much easier on the wallet than shelling out for a dinner when the date stinks. Date #2 is a weekday or Sunday night dinner. Anywhere reliable is fine, but don’t do tapas. It’s too much decision-making too early into the relationship. If things go well, the third date should be upgraded to a weekend and should include more than just dinner. Which brings me to…(drum roll plz.)…FUNTIME BOWL!
You don’t have to drop a wad of cash to do well on this date, boys. Obviously know your audience, but I personally think that the third date should be a fun one where you can kind of let loose and get out from behind a bar or dinner table. Take your date to Taqueria del Sol or Pancho’s – anything on Buford or Cheshire Bridge will do (again know your audience) and afterwards head on over to Funtime.
Slick + I went with some of his coworkers + my brother when he was in town recently. Although we were with a big group, I kept thinking that it really seemed like a fun place for a date night*. Unlike 300 (which is super far away) or Midtown Bowl (which is fun, but always packed during the evenings), Funtime is right up Buford Hwy and never too slammed.
*Note for you super-competitive guys: Let your date win once or twice. I always have to remember this when I play with Slick.
Check out Funtime on a Friday or Saturday night after 8:00 p.m. for Cosmic Bowling: black lights, music, glow lanes, etc. It’s really fun! Promise.
Also, Funtime offers more than just bowling. Please witness from our recent visit:
(Just here to help, guys.) Best of luck to you! And, you’re welcome.
