Main Event Barbers

I have to attend a wedding later today, so I decided I would at least look half way respectable and went to get a hair cut. My favorite place to go is Main Event Barbers. They have a very cool set up inside that is all sports related. They have a comfortable atmosphere with couches and chairs to relax in while you wait. I went to high school with most of these guys and they all played one sport or another while in school. They have a bunch of Woodland High memorabilia as well as numerous pro teams that cover the walls in this unique shop.

You can see Steve Brown cutting a patrons hair in this picture.

One of the real cool things is the numerous TV's located all over the shop that has ESPN playing and they always have the good games on.
No other place in town has an awesome arcade like this. These are the games I grew up on like Pac Man and Space Invaders. The best thing of all, you get to play the games for free! That's right, no quarters needed. My kids love that and quite frankly I do too!
There is no other place in this area where you can go get a hair cut, watch some games and play some cool video games at the same time.

On top of everything else, they are highly skilled at cutting hair. I have never been anywhere else and had a hair cut as good as Main Event. They even bust out the straight edge to clean the neck line. It has the old school feel inside kind of like the old show Cheers. Everyone does know your name in this place. Go check it out the next time you need a hair cut and say hi to Marco Romero or Steve Brown. You will not be disappointed.

My question is why are you going to the barbers Jeff??

Or do they do hair restoration too??

Contrary to popular belief, I do have a few wild hairs that grow. No, they do not give me a discount for being half bald.

Sorry I guess it's the reflection from the flourescents that are blinding so I can't see the wild hairs :)

I like the place too.The only reason those boys moved to that location was to watch all the pretty girls go into Baskin Robins and get their icecream.Those guys that work there are dirtbags....and yes I am jealous and I wish I could be a barber there too!!! LOL
