movie or bowling? Mixer night


As most of you already have heard, we are having a mixer night at the Orleans Casino.
I'm a boss over there and actually helped Ron set up the mixer night.
I had mentioned to him that we have a 16 plex movie theater there, and said that maybe some of us might do a movie before hand since we will be eating a little late that night.
Gives us something to do before hand.

But I also completely forgot that we have a huge bowling alley upstairs.

So my question is...

Would anyone be interested in bowling or a movie.

obviously a movie before hand or bowling before/after the mixer.

Now, what I might be able to do is score us movie tickets for everybody that wants to go. This isn't definite. But I can try my hardest to get us free tickets to what ever we want to see.
The other option for the movie is that some of the theaters have the private boxed in sections.
I can try an get us a key for that PRIVATE room.

Bowling I probably wouldn't be able to get us a discount.
I can get us a discount on TGIF's but not bowling.
Go figure.

So I just need to know who would be interested in this.

I am in for what ever you guys put together, as far as the bowling or movie..I really don't care..I would rather just do a meet and greet. I want to just meet the people that I chat with here on the forum....a face with the name would be great.
Looking forward to the event.

Re: movie or bowling? Mixer night


I went to visit the private theater(1 of the 2)

and let me tell you, I wish I would have known about this sooner.
This whole time I could be using this key to see all my movies in complete privacy.

Sound proof, very private.
It's own lighting and sound control panels on the wall.
It's own private staircase.
we have to take an elevator to get up there.
and if you need to use the restroom, you have to take the elevator back down.

theater holds 8 people.

I've already asked if I can have the key for June 23rd.

So if anyone wants to, I can take 7 people up there.
We can bring food up there, but we have to be careful.

I'm already taking the key for May 22nd for Indy Jones.
While there will be a packed house for it, I'll be in that nice theater all by myself.

For June 23rd. 7 people.
about a 5pm/6pm showing.

John,

I would be in for this.

Please be aware that if there is setup that needs to
be done I will have to bow out but I am certain I will
have no problem finding someone to take my place.

Hi!

I'm always up for a movie! Add me to the list of popcorn munchers! Any idea what time we meet and what we might see?

Re: movie or bowling? Mixer night


The private theaters are in theaters 6 and 7.
Which is the largest of their theaters.
So it's basically what ever is new from that week or past week.
So like right now both theaters house Naria sequel, and Thurs one of the theaters will house Indy Jones

My guess, on what movie(s) will be there...
Incredible Hulk
Get Smart
Happening

No set up is needed.
The control panel is right there on the wall.

meet time.
I guess it depends on what time everyone wants to meet up.
I say 30 mins or so before show time?
to get concessions, tickets and find decent volume control.
We can meet right in front of the theater.



It's at the Orleans just upstairs from TGIF's.

I can't get free passes but I can make sure we get discounted passes, on my discount
But I did get the key to the private theater which I think is the best thing

The private theater is actually part of the actual theater.
It's just in it's own enclosed area.
So the screen is like any size you find in the largest house theaters

The theater can project digital, but they haven't ran a digital movie in quite some time which I find odd.
