Free Blockbuster Las Vegas at Sohn vintage shop in Las Vegas

A visit to the 'Free Blockbuster' in Las Vegas.

Emily made a visit to the Free Blockbuster 'pop up' video and DVD exchange/library/dispenser at Sohn vintage shop on her recent trip to Las Vegas.

The first Free Blockbuster was created in 2019 and since then more have been created in the USA, Canada, and one in the UK.

It's been fun following the Free Blockbuster movement's journey, and it'll be interesting to see where they appear next.

Emily took some DVDs from our collection and swapped them out for three wrestling VHS tapes! She managed to get a Free Blockbuster sticker and one for Sohn too.

Wrestling goodness from the USA and Japan!

Hopefully I'll get to visit Las Vegas again in the future. It'd be superb to see the Free Blockbuster stall in person - and see what's new there to swap. The people at the store also showed Emily the vintage wrestling t-shirts they had in stock.

Check out the Sohn and Free Blockbuster websites for more information. And check out Free Blockbuster Las Vegas on Instagram.

As well as being a wrestling fan I'm a fan of ALF and Emily bought a vintage ALF keyring and badge for my collection at Sohn!

A look back at The Swingers Club Mini Golf in Las Vegas.

On the 8th of September 2011 while on our holiday in Las Vegas Emily and I visited The Swingers Club - a bar within the Plaza Hotel and Casino in downtown Las Vegas - that was home to a 9-hole Mini Golf course!

The course was the 268th played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

The Putt Park Annual Mini-Golf Tournament Las Vegas

Looking back at The Putt Park Annual Mini-Golf Tournament Las Vegas.

I won The Putt Park's Annual Mini-Golf Tournament in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA back in September 2011.

We had first played miniature golf at The Putt Park on our holiday to Las Vegas the year before. It was the 178th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour.

Sadly The Putt Park is no longer there. It was a brilliant 18-hole course and at the time the only outdoor minigolf course in Las Vegas.

Happy 9th Anniversary to KISS by Monster Mini Golf!

Today is the 9th Anniversary of KISS by Monster Mini Golf in Las Vegas.

Congratulations to the Monster Mini Golf team on the milestone.

You can now find KISS by Monster Mini Golf at the Rio Hotel & Casino. Visit the Monster Mini Golf website for more information.

I was last in Las Vegas ten years ago so haven't played the course yet.

We're looking forward to a return to Las Vegas in the future and playing both the KISS Monster Mini Golf and Twilight Zone Mini Golf courses in the city.

I won The Putt Park's Annual Mini-Golf Tournament in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA back in September 2011. It's always nice to get a win in Vegas.

Wall of Famer

We first played minigolf at The Putt Park on our holiday to Las Vegas in 2010. It was the 178th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour. We've now been to 956 course since our travels began in September 2006.

Sadly The Putt Park is no longer there. It was a superb 18-hole course and the only outdoor minigolf venue in Las Vegas.

We're hoping to revisit Las Vegas again in the future as a few more miniature golf courses have opened since our last trip.

The Twilight Zone Mini Golf at Bally's Las Vegas

New indoor minigolf course opening at Bally's Las Vegas in late 2017.

There's a brand new indoor minigolf course opening at Bally's Las Vegas this year. Created by the team at Monster Mini Golf the course will be Twilight Zone themed!

The Twilight Zone mini golf course sounds brilliant and I hope to play it in the future. The Twilight Zone is one of my favourite programmes so I can't wait to see the theming and obstacles at the course.

We love visiting Las Vegas and have played most of the courses out there. On Emily's last visit to the city she played the Kiss by Monster Mini Golf course. On my last visit I won the Putt Park Annual Mini Golf tournament!
