The Burien branch of the King County Library has what sounds like an incredibly fun event goin’ down every Thursday afternoon at 3pm:

What: Game On!

Description: Teens in middle/junior high and high school, play your favorite multi-player video games on GameCube, Xbox 360 and Wii!

We’re turning the meeting room into an arcade so don’t miss the fun!

That’s right folks – teens are invited to toss their books aside, forget the homework and risk carpal tunnel syndrome, as well as losing control of the beloved Wii controller to play video games.

You read that right – your local library hosts video game playing every Thursday at 3pm!

Man, we never had this kind of cool stuff when I was a kid.
