Ya know, you do have that free climbing gym and video arcade at the Steamtown Mall, can't beat free and the food court is fairly reasonable in cost.


Oh, someone should call CPS. I forced my kids to make Chef Boyardee Pizza and then eat it last night. I'm not sure that is cheese in those boxes.
i hope it wasn't the dreaded american cheese

Eh, what?

I have a ton of family in Jersey and a lot of them do speak like that. Nothing wrong with it at all. We always rib each other on who has the accent - Pennsylvanians or Jersey folks.

By the time you bought food from the food court and punped a minimum of 2 tokens into every machine in the mall arcade, you'd spend more than 30 bucks. At least CEC games are all only one token. The pizza is pretty lousy, but edible.


We like taking the kids to Climb a Lot Clubhouse in Tamaqua. Food is much better than CEC and the price is great. Not to mention, they get a lot more exercise and parents can relax while the kids run around. We love that place.

I've never encountered anyone from Jersey that says "joisey".

This weeks code at Climb a Lot is "beach" incase you go.

Sadly, in NEPA, the closest thing we have to Climb a Lot is Chuck e Cheese.

Doubtful, since it is southwest of Jim Thorpe, which depending on who you ask is either NEPA or the Lehigh Valley.

If anything Tamaqua is central pa. NEPA it is not.

There's the other Top Dog.

Top Dog - The Best Looking Sports Bar you'll ever see! (http://www.topdogcherryhill.com/grill.html - broken link)

Maybe they should rename the place Hooter Dog.
