Texas Based EVO Entertainment Acquires Times Square Grand Slam In Tyler
If you live in Tyler then you already know that one of the top places to have family fun in the area is Times Square Grand Slam which features an arcade, bowling, laser tag and a movie theater packed into one building. Long known throughout East Texas and beyond for their 65,000 square feet of boundless family fun, the evolution of the locally owned, family-run business includes passing the torch on to another Texas-based family company.
Austin Based EVO Entertainment Is Acquiring The Tyler Family Fun Center.
