While my family was in Lawrence, Kansas over a weekend in May for my son’s college graduation (kid just earned his Master’s Degree in Architecture, you know, no big deal or anything), we spent a day visiting a few fun places in Kansas and right across the state line in Missouri. Kansas City boasts a few arcades/barcades, including an Up-Down location (see my visit to Up-Down in Des Moines, Iowa, which I also visited on a trip to see my kid), but from what I saw online, the one that intrigued me the most was Draftcade.
Much like Up-Down, Draftcade is a small chain with a location in KC, one in Toledo, Ohio, and another in Richmond, Virginia. They seemed to feature a decent collection of video games and pinball, as well as Skee-Ball (which will always convince Mrs. SuperHyper to accompany me to an arcade), and of course drinks and food.
