August 2024, DeKalb, IL — At the start of this month, AVS Companies completed an exciting project at Mardi Gras Lanes, installing 26 brand-new arcade games for the bowling center’s latest attraction, King’s Corner Arcade. The new arcade offers a wide range of entertainment, including merchandisers, skill-based redemption games, video arcade games, and much more.

This expansion marks a new chapter for Mardi Gras Lanes, adding to the bowling alley’s existing offerings, which include a Pro Shop, the French Quarter Lounge, and various bowling leagues catering to players of all ages. The addition of King’s Corner Arcade has already garnered significant attention from local patrons.

“It was wonderful working with AVS on King’s Corner Arcade,” said Keith Tadevich, owner of Mardi Gras Lanes and King’s Corner Arcade. “The knowledge of Eileen and her team was amazing, which made the selection and installation of the games and equipment as easy as possible. I look forward to working with AVS again in the future.”

The seamless process from planning to installation left both the AVS and Mardi Gras Lanes teams excited about the results. The arcade immediately started drawing interest from customers curious about the new attraction.

“It was great to work with Keith and Brian from Mardi Gras Lanes and see King’s Corner Arcade take shape in the space,” said Eileen Schreiner, Director of FEC Sales & Service at AVS. “We knew it was going to be a hit when customers kept coming in to look at what we were doing and asking when they could start playing!”
