• I believe it's called Boomers now. I never did go there much as I grew up closer to the Golf n Stuff in Downey featured in Karate Kid and where the guy used to live in the treehouse to set a world record!
  
  Sorry, not OC I know! As for Boomers a distant relative had a party there for her child recently so I know it's open but I don't know whats changed over the years.
  
  Anyone remember there was a miniature golf place on Beach maybe in Stanton that closed a few years back? These is still one off the 91 in I belive the city of Ornage too. I went there last year. It's harder to find an arcade these days, it was fun.

• There was also a Bullwinkles in Irvine off Culver near the 5 frwy. My kids loved the place, they had good beer and not so good pizza.

• I only got to Bullwinkles once, and that was sometime in 1987. But it seems to me that the one we (my folks and I, while I was home on vacation from college out here in Kansas) was somewhere over in the Irvine area. I thought it was a vast improvement on the Chuck E Cheez model, and really got a kick out of the log cabin/northwoods theme. And I wanted so much to buy ne of the sweatshirts with the 'Wassamatt U' logo, to bring back out here to wear to class...I had/have a somewhat twisted sense of humour and love to tweak noses like this!

• Bullwinkle's was awesome as a little kid growing up in the early '80's! I remember attending many birthday parties there. I believe they also had animated figures like Chuck E cheese. The pizza was okay for kids but the parents hated it. Yes, it is now Boomer's in F.V.. I don't believe they had the mini-golf back then that Boomer's has now. They certainly had video games and party plans, though.

• I remember Bullwinkles and the water show. They did have games, but their game room was small. It's Boomers now and it looks pretty the much the same inside, except no more Rocky & Bullwinkle.

• Yes. It's still there but it's called Boomers now. I just had my daughters 9th birthday party there and it was a blast. There is also a skating rink next door that we frequent. I grew up in Orange in the 70's and 80's and don"t remember going to this Bullwinkles very much but I do remember CAMELOT off the 91 freeway. Aww good times, good times. Flirting with boys, bouncing on the trampaleans, cruzin the parking lot, wondering if anybody dared to try the water slide. ( I heard rumor that a kid got cut in 1/2 one summer on that thing)

• I could walk to Bullwinkles from my house in about 10 minutes. It was awesome.
  
  Better yet was the Tommy's Burgers that used to be there next to Malibu Grand Prix before all the new stuff arrived.
