Main Event Entertainment, known for its family-friendly entertainment centers, is facing an unusual hurdle ahead of its first Minnesota location's grand opening: ten bowling pins have gone missing. The Woodbury venue, located at Tamarack Hills (540 Bielenberg Drive), is set to open on August 3, but the pins never arrived. In response, the company has launched a community-wide search from July 19 to July 28, inviting locals to solve the mystery.
Starting July 19, participants can visit https://mainevent.com/woodbury-lost-pins/ for daily clues about the pins' locations throughout Woodbury. Each recovered pin unlocks a VIP invitation for five people and a full year of free games. The finder of the Golden Pin will receive the ultimate prize: Main Event for life.
"We are so excited to bring the Main Event experience to Minnesota, but we need the community's detective skills to help us get our lanes ready for action," said Michael Frisby, General Manager of the Woodbury Main Event. "We've hidden these pins throughout Woodbury, and we can't wait to see who can track them down and claim their prize before our grand opening on August 3!"
The new venue will feature laser tag, bowling, arcade games, and a full-service restaurant and bar offering items like the Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich, Funnel Cake Fries, Cotton Candy Shirley Temple, and Margarita Flight. Main Event operates over 60 locations in 23 states and is owned by Dave & Buster's Entertainment, Inc., which also runs 182 Dave & Buster's stores across North America.
This scavenger hunt not only generates buzz but also engages the community in a fun, interactive way ahead of the opening. For complete rules and eligibility, visit https://mainevent.com/woodbury-lost-pins/.
