Hey guys! So me and my wife have been talking and sometime or another we are thinking about buying a boxed in trailer probably around 28 foot or so or bigger and making it a gaming station to rent out for events such as birthdays, hangouts, or to go to the fair or something and let people play there for free for a certain amount of time with a tip jar in it.
There would possibly be 6-7 TVs, Xbox's, PlayStations, and possibly 1 to 2 pcs, and possibly a vr station somehow maybe outside. It all would be running off a diesel generator( I have a big one already ). Or a capable outlet if possible.
I'm not sure about pricing yet or how that would work so if you have any ideas about that drop a comment
I'm willing to travel also. Maybe not far but around my state.
This is a BIG project that we have in mind. And would take a while to complete. But do you guys think it's worth it? Or am I wasting my money. I need your guys opinion on this for real. Coming from real gamers and friends I need to know haha. Cause once doing this there is no going back in my eyes. Let me know though!

Would take a lot of investing, but depending on what your guys pricing would be and how many gaming events happen around you would determine if it's actually worth it or not.

I say it's worth it. There is a local church in my City that does the exact same thing. It attracts a lot of attention. I would also say have a look at the costing for solar panels , only downside is if kids are not wanting to get off. In Australia , they had to get public liability insurance since going out to events etc. Unsure if it works the same for you. Maybe have a look for pricing for vans or even a big trailer.
In the end it's going to cost a lot of money.

That sounds like it would be quite fun and might attract some good business
However you'd need to make sure little assholes wouldn't take advantage I.e. breaking stuff or spilling drinks over the place
Otherwise it sounds like a nice idea

That sounds awesome, I've seen them around where I live and I'm jealous of all the little kid birthday parties that get that. Are you in an area that it would actually work?

Me personally I would never do this. But I would make sure it's something that you can make your money back or else it's not even worth it imo. Good luck if you do this tho

That's why I'm putting a lot of thought into it before I go for it. Why would you not do this though? Or is it just somehing not for you?

Solar panels is a good idea. Never thought about that!

I live in Kentucky. So it's not the best place but it would definitely work. Lexington and Louisville would be my biggest places.

I would have to have a parent or someone sign a form saying like if anything gets broke they guy it.

Not that I'm aware of. If so I've been breaking the law. I'd have to check into it tho. Why?

Sorry I mean if you get this up and running. Do you need to get some type of insurance ? There was a gaming van that came to an public event. They had to have public liability insurance to go there . This is in Australia unsure if it's the same as you..
