Old strip center on corner of Mason and Cimarron has a shady little storefront in it. Name is as above. This IS a game room? Right? Never anyone in "store" part. It is next to Tonys Mexican restaurant. If you linger too long by door a guy will walk out of shadows to let you in I guess.

Have any of you been in?

How long has it been there?

Oh man, that's the NICE side of I-10. Head NORTH on Mason and then east on Clay to where grew up if you want shady.

You are absolutely correct. 'Twas Katy proper. But what you are talking about is west of the area we are talking about.

The "store"front is never lit like a business would normally be. Again if you linger by door someone will approach it. We go to Tonys regularly and had to wait for table once. People approach and the door is opened. If you stand near the door when opened the smell is full on dirty Vegas casino or dive bar. Not the smell of a "gift exchange".

What kind of store is this? A front for hookers? Drugs? Can't say I've heard of a gift exchange store before?

Has to be a game room.

They have them in Houston. But this one is hush hush.

Places that have video poker machines in them. They usually attract a pretty sketchy crowd
