If you were excited about Player’s Club after seeing the coming soon signage you’re gonna flip your lid when you see inside. Last we heard, one of the owners (Ian Hilton) told us:
“6 pinball machines. Also skee ball, b-ball, bubble hockey and like 20 old school video games including my personal favorite, Gauntlet.”
Well my friends that translates far better in photos. And maybe it’s because I’m 43 years old and this whole place reminds me of my youth but, I think you’ll agree that this place is fan-freaking-tastic. If all goes well they will open in a week or so – but March 1st at the very latest.
It’s unassuming at first, and oh so fitting to be in the basement. You are first greeted by a wall of record covers:
And then the magic starts:
A million more photos after the jump. (more…)

“The Pig is giving away 100 free hot dogs this Friday, February 9th. More specifically, they’re giving away the Boss Hogg Dog, which is a special available only during lunch on Friday (the only time The Pig serves lunch throughout the week) and is pretty fancy for a frankfurter with toppings that include foie gras aioli, smoked gouda cheese, cognac mustard and more. The giveaway will take place from 11:30 AM-3 PM or until they run out of dogs.”

previous jaywalking enforcement at Connecticut and K Street, NW back in 2011
Dana reports last night:
“Just got a ticket at 14th&S NW for crossing against the signal on foot. (Flashing red hand). Officer said enforcement due to uptick in pedestrian deaths in 2017 compared to 2016.”
Ed. Note: I had no idea you couldn’t cross when there was a flashing red hand – can that be right? You can’t start crossing when it’s flashing but you can finish crossing, is that it? When I see a flashing hand but still have a green light I just double time it. Crazy. Anyway, heads up and be safe whatever your mode of transport.
Well, I’ve got a new line for the old PoPville bio!! hahaha this is amazing:
“Dear PoPville – While not as important or exciting as all of the lost sweet dogs you have helped reunite, I am excited to let you know that the Barbie Boat and Kens have been returned to their home, due in large part to your noting the important tip that they were spotted in a shopping cart near the White House. A PoPville follower left them tied to the front house. The horrific Logan Crime spree has come to an end. 😀😀😀”
Thanks to a reader for sending. Say it ain’t so for Barrel House, say it ain’t so.
