What to do and see in Kentucky, United States: The Best Game & Entertainment Centers

April 22, 2022 Janean Rudisill

Famous for Bourbon Country and horse farms, civil war battlefields and beautiful natural parks, Kentucky offers a delightful mix of experiences. You might begin in Lexington, where the 1200-acre Kentucky Horse Park is a popular attraction. The university adds exciting sports, impressive art and a vibrant student/professor population to the city. Louisville is similar, where renowned Churchill Downs hosts the annual Kentucky Derby and the Belle of Louisville, the nation’s oldest steam-driven river paddlewheeler, hosts enchanting lunch and dinner cruises along the beautiful Ohio River. Next, head south to visit Mammoth Cave National Park for a day of touring the cave (the world’s longest known cave), hiking and canoeing on the Green River. Paducah, Berea, Bowling Green – so many places to explore and enjoy!

We bought the 3 hour unlimited pass and were able to do several races, throw axes for an hour, and smash things. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Monty and Riley really tried to help us improve our ax throwing... with various degrees of success ????

I brought my children to enjoy some go kart racing. Was very happy to see they had smaller cars and a race just for kids! They loved it! For once they actually got to drive themselves!

I have been to a few cat cafes in my time, and they have all been wonderful. I was walking in expecting it to be wonderful (per usual) but it exceed my expectations. I was expecting adult cats, who I love, BUT IT WAS A DAY WITH 20 KITTENS! I was beyond excited, because I haven't been able to foster kittens this year. Anyway, it was clean, and the kittens were all healthy and happy. This was a wonderful day for me and my friend. The other piece is that the kittens are all adoptable. They are the perfect kittens to adopt because they have been socialized with all types of humans! It was the perfect day.

When my boyfriend was looking to adopt a cat last year, we visited another cat cafe first, but found this one to be a much better experience. He has now adopted 2 cats from here - and I will definitely be getting my next one here as well. Whether your goal is to adopt or just to hang out with some sweet kitties, you'll have a great time at Lucky Cat. It's a cozy, welcoming atmosphere - like visiting a friend's house. The volunteers are all friendly and helpful too. And if you *are* looking to adopt, this is a great way to let a cat choose you in an environment that's pretty close to an actual home (so you can get an idea of how they'd fit in yours). Highly recommended all-around.

Love this place! Great and fairly priced axe throwing, and amazing racing simulators. I will definitely be returning here. Can’t speak to the bar, but everyone seemed to have a drink in hand with a smile on their face.
