Feelin' excited
Most things in Korea have some sort of gimmick to get you in the door and pay more money. When you're in a place that's so densely packed with restaurant after restaurant and bar after bar, you need something to make money. Maybe it's drinking in a jail cell, or swinging on indoor porch swings. At King of Pirates, it's the chance to throw your glass against the wall, at least the outside part made of ice.Feelin' excited
Yar! Into ye' drinking room!
The ice glasses
Of course, a video illustration. We didn't get it on tape, but I did win myself a free beer.
Needless to say, their gimmick worked on me. I kept getting beers so that I would have another chance to hit the target. Needless to say, I got pretty drunk because of it.

It was really fun - I could definitely see it being popular back home!
Creative and amazing target award machine. Too bad about the drunk part. Next time order near-beer or alcohol-free!
Yeah, I can't imagine there are many more targets just like this!
Wow....your boredom level must be at an all time high!!! And no prize for hitting the target.....what a rip!
Cool (ha-ha!) idea! I bet it made the beer taste even better!
Hey, maybe this would go over in the states too! You could open the first one in KC.
