DDR - Dance Dance Revolution & Recreational Play - 9:00pm till 1:00am??
DDR is a night of competitive & recreational gaming on numerous games, including the hugely popular rhythm games Dance Dance Revolution (DDR). Played on a specialized dance pad, Dance Dance Revolution is a music-based rhythm video game. The game requires players to move with dance steps to the pace and direction of arrows that appear on the player's screen. It's all synchronized to the rhythm and beat of a chosen song in the game.

When a player successfully hits the correct steps to match the arrows in time with the music, the "Dance Gauge" life bar fills up. Failure to match the correct steps depletes the life bar. At the end of the song, players receive a numerical score based on their performance, unless the Dance Gauge runs out, resulting in a failed attempt the player.

Cost - Admission to the 19+ DDR and recreational play area is included with admission to the Halo 2 league play, or $5 at the door (includes access to the film screenings as well)
