Groupon has a deal for axehole. It is something like $35 for 2 people, plus if you use coupon code wow25 you get 25% off. I did the one for $45 which includes smash box. My total was $33. Seems like a decent deal to me.

Any interest for a meetup on Sat Jan 20th? We plan on doing it then. I haven't reserved a time yet but they appear to have plenty of open slots all day long.

Axehole is a new axe throwing attraction. I believe it’s at Neonopolis.

Axe!!??

Hahaha!!!

That’s a tomahawk, or hatchet, not an axe! You couldn’t throw an axe single-handed if you wanted to.

A hand axe or even a battle-axe can be handled (or even thrown, if necessary) with one hand. I think the term "hatchet" is properly used for a bladed device that, on the opposite side, has a flat peen intended for driving nails. It is a tool typically used for assembling or disassembling wooden crates, with the blade used for either cutting or prying boards apart. The name somehow got misappropriated for other hand axes.

There was someone, (perhaps a few) on GF who were calling me that, or something similar, perhaps it was Blackhole and LarryS.

You’re probably right, but everything in that YT video is a tomahawk.

The package I bought includes a spear, 2 special items like stars and other similar things plus a pinata. For $33 for 2 people sounds like a fun time to me.

I believe they called you AssholeWolf (which is pretty funny, I think).

Wait what the f....? You got a package deal on.....a spear (okay, makes sense), 2 items like a star (also makes sense)......and a...pinata?!!?!????!!! Is it just me or is that sort of a weird combination to add in there?


Sorta like those infomercials -- If you call within the next 10 minutes, you won't just get ONE magic bullet, not just TWO magic bullets, but you'll also get a FREE robe and slippers!!! Offer promo code "PIZZA" to get a free large pepperoni pizza, S&H extra.

well they don't call it a pinata. They call it a smash box. I assume you throw the spears at it or something. Hopefully candy falls out too but I am doubting that.


You people are no fun. Everyone should want to come and drink and throw axes. What could possibly go wrong? Maybe we can get ZK to come to.

Apperantly you don't know how us Vegas people do things, especially people involved in AP. You are trying to plan some entertainment in early Dec that's taking place on Jan 20th. Try back around the 15th.

You probably have an unfair advantage practicing out there on your hick farm (-;

The issue is none of yinz have kids and are free as a bird. :-( memmories.... I will keep bumping this in hopes to guilt some people into a meetup. If not here, maybe high roller or carnival court on friday, or maybe dinner, or maybe gamblind any time.

2 full time jobs is tough and I can't wait to have a weekend with no laptop and no work.

...Jumping on the train of I thought this was (another) thread about making fun of Axel. Can we convert the thread to both talk about this new "axe shoe attraction" or whatever it is (someone please explain) AND make fun of Axel???

For the benefit of the thread too, can you explain exactly what this is? I've gathered (without clicking links just yet) it's some kind of mid-evil festival with axe throwing and possibly food or something? Yes I'm guessing wildly... Please inform us!

It is basically a place that has lanes like a gun firing range but instead of shooting a gun you throw axes and such at tree stumps with bullseyes painted on them. I think it is BYOB but I will just get liquored up first (it took me awhile to spell liquored, I kept writing lickered, didnt think that was right).

It is probably a really dumb place but they seem to be popping up all over the place. There is one that just opened about 2 miles from my house.
