We explored both floors and kept finding more classic arcade games around every corner. I was so excited to play Street Fighter again, and yes, I got completely sucked into air hockey too. Downstairs, the pinball machines line the walls, and there are so many to choose from. We also played Dance Dance Revolution until we literally couldn't catch our breath. What we thought would be a quick stop turned into over an hour of nonstop fun. Whether you're feeling nostalgic or introducing someone to old school arcade games for the first time, this place is absolutely worth a visit. We had an absolute blast and would definitely recommend it!

Did I mention it's a technicolor overload explosion of yes wow? Yeah! You gotta see it. Or at least go to the website and see the virtual tour. But preferably go there! This place soothes my soul and reminds me that it's okay to be different, to be free, to let your wild bits out sometimes, to explore the edges of possibilty! Gosh there's so much, craft tools, tarot readings, postcard parties, queer film screenings, drag shows, open mics, performance, activism, love, energyyyyyyyy...... Go feel the vibes, baby!

We parked at the Palmer lot, which has free visitor parking, as well as permit parking if you have a blue (or gold) pass. The museum is easy to navigate and beautifully appointed. There's a little bit of everything, but no topic is too in-depth. So, if you're looking for a deep dive, this might not be the museum for you. My child love the "Please touch" signage, and this was a nice way to physically interact with the displays. We plan to return to see a show at the planetarium, which requires a ticket.

Tickled Fancy's troupe is made up of lovely, expressive ladies not afraid to strip their clothes off to music in the truest burlesque style, mixing charm and a touch of coy smarm. Laughter is welcome with these delightful dolls. Their routines split between groups and solo performances, covering a gamut of different styles; mermaids and sailors opened our act, with all the posturing, fin-fanning, and peering over giant aviator sunglasses at heaving bosoms an audience could want. A hula-hoop wearing clown stripped down to her striped-sock skivvies, and that girl was adorable. I've never wanted sparkly red glitter-lipstick so badly after seeing the hostess of events shining in the limelight; that's a good thing, right? The piece de resistance was the superhero choreography where villains and heroes of DC Comics squared off on the stage. Robin, Batman, Catwoman (I think) and Poison Ivy duel in a feat of swaying hips, thrown punches, and dangling ornaments from pasties (yes, the bat symbol.). Poison Ivy stole the show on that one for me, though everyone was fantastic; I guess I've got a thing for deadly redheads with voluptuous curves and a killer "POW!" "SMACK!" choreographic sign behind her head. Thoroughly professional and entertaining, the Tickled Fancy company is an awesome troupe who I hope to see again. Thank you, ladies!

There is still the vintage exterior box office, a large marquee, and a traditional concession stand layout with modern offerings.

The Michigan hosts a mix of first run, repertory, independent, and experimental programming, including service as the main theater for the annual Ann Arbor Film Festival.

Whether it's a new release or seeing classics like Star Wars, LOTR, or The Big Lebowski on the big screen, the experience is incredible. The theater itself is breathtaking too. Around 1600 seats, the balcony, the chandelier, and the nearly 100-year-old organ that rises up before the movie starts while someone plays it live. It honestly feels magical in a way that no modern theater does anymore. Even just seeing the marquee glowing outside at night feels iconic. The whole place has this timeless energy to it that makes going to the movies feel important again. Whenever someone asks me my favorite place in Ann Arbor, this is my answer.

One time, a friend visiting me wanted to go go-karting so I bought us tickets. It was $25/person to go around about 7 times. I was given a kart that couldn't turn right unless it super slow so I had to slow down drastically every time. I eventually got ran into which put my kart out of commission for the rest of the rounds. It was no fun at all and I should have been offered a refunded since I couldn't even do the activity I paid for properly. I've also done this selfie golf which is okay but it just wasn't for me. I could tell it wasn't well cleaned or maintained. I've tried both of the bars which had great bartenders both times. The drinks are way overpriced just as the food is as well. It's about $25 for some chicken wings which they didn't even bother to try to make look good on their menu. Your first time there, you have to spend a minimum of $20 just to get a pass and some of the popular games aren't even working properly. You can get this thing called a rainbow pass where you can play certain games unlimited for a set period of time but it limits you to only the shooting and driving games which get tiring after 15 minutes. Overall, I really wouldn't suggest people going here unless you want to take a loan out for mid-tier games and overpriced food.
