Maybe they can go to the malt shop later? And then the sock hop?

      My small town (<3000) had one in the 90s, we had a dance floor with music Friday and Saturday nights, a projector for movies and a concession stand, and a mini golf course downstairs. In my later teens I helped convert an unused part of the second story into a haunted house/maze for Halloween.

      The building was originally a warehouse built back when the town had industry around the turn of the 20th century. It was brick built so still in great shape even today and it’s been abandoned again for 20 years now

      My public library has one and has a bunch of teen books, manga, video games, board games, they just got some arcade machines, and they got some 3d printers. They got events going on from time to time for the kids as well.

      It’s kind of like a library but not that many books, more condoms and snacks, often a projector and screen for movie Nights, and access to Community Resources like food banks and clothing places and counseling for gay people and stuff

        All that stuff sounds very smashable for instagram likes. Of course, “it’s just a prank bro”.
