KEY TAKEAWAYS
1.  The Pin Stripes concept is what the Iceplex is about:
     •  Recreation
     •  Dining
     •  Entertainment
The primary difference is the Iceplex is a player on a much grander scale and offers a much greater community benefit.  Additionally, our branding and positioning of each segment will appeal to a larger audience, driving incremental traffic and revenue.
2.  Their dining area is designed to separate their two distinct audiences:
     •  Dining guests
​     •  Recreation activity guests
3.  Their generous use of glass and window provide greater visual interest and depth; creating the appearance of having greater space..
4.  
To separate the dining area from the general bar area is a floor-to-ceiling glassed in wine case. This provides visual appeal, allows for depth, and provides an effective sound barrier of moderate bar area noise.
5.  Their site was designed to incorporate bowling and bocce ball, interactive/engaging group sports.

     •  Because of our upstairs configuration (~40' ft. wide) we are unable to offer the same.
     •  Our offering alternative games and activities will better utilize space, achieve greater turn rates, 
driving additional revenue.
Skee ball          billiards          corn hole (four)          roulette          live music       air hockey          bumper pool            
Pull tabs          table shuffle board          darts          card games          dance          foosball          pinball
6.  Upstairs they have generous banquet facilities for corporate events, private parties and other special occasions. 

    •  There is a second bar area.
7. Their 'sophisticated fun' 
positioning well positions their product and targets a more affluent audience, having greater discretionary income.
8. Pin stripes is planning opening up a second location in downtown Mnpls/St. Paul next year.
