Mandalay Bay has announced a new mini golf-themed lounge, taking over the former Light nightclub space, and we’re more convinced than ever Las Vegas is obsessed with balls.<\/p>\n

Swingers will be an adults-only “crazy golf and high-end entertainment experience of epic proportions” arriving in fall of 2024. They forgot “immersive,” but nobody’s perfect.<\/p>\n

The $50 million (not a typo) Swingers announcement included an A.I. rendering resulting from the prompt, “Mini golf course inside a mall, include random balcony, Ferris wheels and a food court.”<\/p>\n

Why are we the only one who noticed exactly none of these people have golf clubs?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The rendered people at Swingers are doing what sociologists would describe as “some weird-ass shit,” including one couple conducting a deodorant check. In another part of the rendering, a woman is proposing marriage to a guy who recently visited a hair stylist with a seizure disorder.<\/p>\n

Alternative headline to this story, “Las Vegas is Officially Obsessed With Holes.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The parent company of Swingers is Competitive Socialising, obviously European or anarchists due to the snub of the letter “z.”<\/p>\n

“Competitive socializing” is actually a great term to describe the wave of “drinking while having experiences” venues popping everywhere, from darts to ax throwing and VR zombie blasting.<\/p>\n

Swingers will have three stories, DJs and lots of activities to distract from the fact people have largely forgotten how to make conversation.<\/p>\n

Longtime Vegas watchers will recall there was a Swingers Club mini golf course at the Plaza a few years ago, operated by comedy-hypnotist Anthony Cools. The space is now Sand Dollar Downtown.<\/p>\n

Anyway, balls! Balls are everywhere in Las Vegas!<\/p>\n

TopGolf continues to thrive near MGM Grand, and another driving range with booze is being built at Strat, Atomic Golf.<\/p>\n
