Sparkles Family Fun Center Arcade Feature – Skeeball

February 20, 2012 by Sara

In addition to our roller-skating rink, Sparkles Family Fun Center in Kennesaw, GA also has an arcade room where you can play all kinds of fun games. Air hockey, first-person driver games, and skeeball are just some of the awesome games you can find in our arcade.

A Short History of the Much-Loved Game

  • A crowd favorite, skeeball was invented in 1909 by J. Dickinson Este in the city of Philadelphia.
  • In 1928, the size of the alley reduced by more than half to 14 feet. Originally, the skeeball alleys were 36 feet long! Talk about a long way to go!
  • In 1932, the first ever skeeball tournament was held in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

What’s your favorite part of Sparkles’ arcade room? The Skeeball? The Stuff Shop? We want to know! Whatever your favorite, we hope that you keep coming to Sparkles Family Fun Center in Kennesaw, GA.
