In a move that was made earlier this year,  Bently's on Broadway and The Bar Horizons & More in San Antonio raised the age to enter their bars to 30 years old.  The Bar Horizon now advertises itself as a place where "the grown and mature come to relax, play, eat and dance."  The change has been effective since May and looks like it is here to stay.

In an article posted by KSAT 12, the owner, Toya Taylor,  say's "I don't do drama, I don't allow drama. That's why my age limit is 30 and up.  I love my 21 and up but sometimes they don't really know how to control their alcohol.'  They are pretty proud of the results, you can see the results by scrolling through their Facebook page.

What do you think of the new age limit for their establishment? Do you think it will curtail the rowdiness? Do you think something like this would work in Victoria? Let us know in the Facebook comment of this status.

While I don't consider this an extreme thrill ride it is super fun.  This ride will have you straddling a jet-ski-style car while you race out over the lake, launching 60 feet into the air through banks and turns along 2,600 feet of track. Side note: I was at Sea World when this ride got stuck and the back part of the park was shut down for a Fire Department rescue.  That was an interesting trip.

While this is an older ride, however, it was recently made over with a fresh coat of pain and retheming in the queue line.  At one point, I felt this ride was cursed because it was always closed and we could never ride it. However, since the remodel, the ride has been open on every visit.
