Outdoor movie events seem to be all the rage this summer, and although we’ve found lots and lots of free movies, this event does have a small admission fee. We’ll say though that it’s for a better grade of movie then is normally playing at the Free Screenings (and with admission the crowds shouldn’t be as huge)

The Indianapolis Museum of Art is holding it’s next movie in it’s Summer nights movie series – Hustle and Flow (2005 Rated R)

mixed_pizzaSometimes a first date needs a bit of an icebreaker to get things going and off to the right foot.  Somewhere that has multiple things / activities can be just what you need to get things off to the right start and minimize those awkward silent moments.

I can remember a first date in particular at a place very similar to Incredible Pizza where I lived that had all these sorts of attractions (and even a movie theater to top things off). They had arcade games there as well and had the arcade version of Dance Dance Revolution, I remember telling her a story about some clubbing adventures I had while walking around trying to figure out what game to play next. Then somehow we ended up at that Dance Dance Revolution machine and the next thing I hear is “I wanna see you DANCE!!” Five games later and my initials on the high score had obvioulsy proved my worth to this young lady, and I’m not exactly sure how she remembers the experience, but I have mixed emotions about the whole thing.
I was pretty sorry to see that this place had closed down due to the recession when I went to go meet someone there about a month ago for a different first date.
