Houston Yelpers Got Game!

Gusty winds and a cold shower weren't enough to ward off members of the Houston Yelp Elite Squad in a Pac Man fever frenzy!

On Friday the 13th, more than 100 Elites and their guests made way to Joystix Classic Games & Pinball for a few hours of unlimited vintage arcade gaming—including Atari, pinball, air hockey, race car games and basketball. With more than 250 games to choose from in the 9000-square-foot showroom, a few yelpers worked up a sweat, and thankfully the connecting Eighteen Twenty Bar quenched thirsts with ice cold brew. And let's not forget the bites! What goes hand in hand with arcade games and a few brewskies? Fried goodies! The famous Raising Cane's was on site dishing out hot and juicy all-white meat chicken tenders, Texas toast and their secret dipping sauce!

The night's prize winners, Eric M and Sabrina D, won tickets to the 5th Annual Empty Bowls Houston; and Charles P snagged a pair of tickets to see the upcoming flick, Beer Wars. Congrats to all the winners, and another huge thank you to the evening's sponsors: Joystix Classic Games & Pinball and Raising Cane's

If you missed out, read up on what yelpers are saying in their reviews of the event and postings on Talk, and check out more photos!

Til April ... SYOY!
