Come play games and hang out with us at Round 1 Arcade in Grapevine Mills! We meet towards the dining area in the back at the beginning and socialize for half an hour or so, and after that everyone can split and play games of their choosing (or take a chance at the many claw machines in the arcade). We also get spots secured for bowling, pool, and karaoke.

Please follow the associated forum so you can get updates regarding bowling lanes, karaoke rooms, and pool availability. Do note that you need a Round 1 card to be able to play the arcade games, but this is easily obtained at the counter.

Let's have another fun night of loud arcade games and plushie winnings!!

Every person is allowed to visit OSO 5 times a year as a guest.. we'll take advantage of that by throwing 5 events this year, and this will be our first :)

When you're there just say you're part of the event upstairs and they'll make you sign a waiver. You'll be good to go upstairs and hangout with us at the bar and open space!
Find out where some of our GWC members got their battle scars from climbing!!

And NO I will not be working out, and you don't need to either.

You can bring your own board games or switches (There's a TV available, I'll bring the dock and necessary cables).

If you feel like ego climbing or comparing each other's one rep maxes in the gym, you can also go downstairs if it gets too crowded upstairs :))))))

See all of you there!
