Have dinner and drinks at the West End Smokehouse & Tavern. Catch the game on one of over 50 televisions, show your pool shark skills on a billiards table, play some shuffle board or darts, or relive your childhood by pumping quarters into an arcade game and setting the new "high score" record. Pizza, barbeque, burgers and everything in between are available on the menu.
Bruce Springsteen, the Foo Fighters, ZZ Top, Britney Spears, Elton John, Aerosmith, Prince, AC/DC, Eric Clapton, Metallica, Rod Stewart, Van Halen, Bob Seger and James Taylor all have two things in common - they are some of the biggest names in the music business, and they have all graced the stage at the Verizon Arena. Keep your eye on the schedule for the next big performer to rock the entertainment venue.
Take the kids to monkey around with the animals at the Little Rock Zoo. The zoo is home to over 725 animals, living in habitats that mimic their natural environments. Giraffes, gorillas, rhinos, alligators, flamingos, bears, elephants, bobcats, tigers, lemurs, and zebras are just a few of the animals you'll see throughout the zoo. While you're traveling through the zoo's exhibits and attractions, take a ride on the train or stop to play at the park for even more fun.
