Wednesday

Wednesday is 80’s Retrocade at Pinballz, which means 80’s prices. Pinballz Arcade is one of my favorite and cheapest ways to spend an evening in Austin. Take a break from Diablo III and check out the over 200 games they’ve got stored in this BYOB facility. They’ve got over six generations of playable pinball machines and more. The place is packed with pachinko, skee ball, dance dance revolution, and even guitar hero.

Sunday

It’s that time of the year in Texas where everyone is open late and the Westlake Hat Creek Burgers is joining in. To promote their new later hours they’re hosting the first ever Sunday Funday from 2:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. There will be live local music, face painting, a balloon clown, free t-shirts, and $2 beer, wine, and small shakes. I can’t think of a better way to spend Memorial weekend.
