Lazer Runner Owen Sound
January 4, 2010
There’s a great new place in Owen Sound to have some fun. You can get a group of friends together and go play laser tag at LaZer Runner Owen Sound. Doesn’t matter if you’re old or young… incredibly co-ordinated or a sports ninja… it’s fun for everyone, not matter what age or agility level.
My son recently had a birthday. He had played laser tag before and thought it would be a great way to celebrate his birthday. He invited a couple friends, his sister and one of her good friends. They had a ball. The boys kicked some serious butt the first game, so after that they started mixing things up. There are 7 exciting game scenarios to choose from.
A little about laser tag:
The arena floor houses barriers where players can hide from their opponents. Music, sound effects and simulated fog will fill the air.
Each participant wears a lightweight fibre optic vest and is equipped with a phaser.
The aim is to “tag” the vests of opposing team members with a laser beam as many times as possible during a 10-minute game, while also protecting against opposing shots.
A tagged player is disarmed for five seconds. Sentry pods, which are located in the middle of the arena floor, also fire lasers at players, creating another obstacle.
The phaser emits a radio signal that records each player’s score, based on the number of successful hits, minus tags from an opponent. There are two “home bases” on the arena floor, which can be invaded by opposing teams.
Did I play, not this time… I figured they’d all gang up on the old girl… but be sure that next time I will!
