"Schnitzels & Giggles" (Danbury NH)

Jay Grove:  "I'm someone who appreciates good food... and THIS my friends, is good food.  I suggest that if you're in it for the schnitzel, that you get in for the whole meal at the Inn at Danbury.  I lived up that way for a little over a year, and I bet that more than half of that time was spent eating and drinking at the Inn!!  Awesome beer and even better food, made right there in-house.  Bob Graf has served me food that has made me want to backpack across Europe!  Just do me a favor... please don't go there and order a Bud Light!!  Live a little!!


"Funspot" (Laconia NH)

Jay Grove:  "One of the best things about moving back to my home state of NH is being 20 minutes from the biggest (and in my opinion best) arcade in the world.  You name it... they have it.  Old and new.  all of the stuff that I grew up on; Kiss pinball, all of the Midway classics, Nintendo classics, Skee-Ball... everything!!  This is the place where world records are set.  Takes me back to the days of lining your quarter up on the bottom of the game to hold spots and using notebook after notebook to devise my Pac-Man pattern."

Check out the movie "The King of Kong" for a look at the happenings. 


"Retro Arcade Museum" (Beacon NY)

Jay Grove: "I'm a collector of vintage video game systems and a player of any video game... so for me this place is like Funspots father!!  Tons of hard to find games from the 60's and 70's, along with some early 80's classics.  Games like Merlin, and the "Head-to-Head" series are what got me into gaming as kid, so its awesome to have all of my favorites in one place... and to try out some new "favorites" that I never even knew I had!"
