The new site is due north of Best Buy. Mathis is selling them the 2.44 acre site.

That means a scaled down version of D and B.....

How come they aren't going over to Jinx?

Thanks for the info update.  

Now, I don't mean to sound rude, but why do I care? It's like an adult "fun world" place or what?  Maybe I'm out of the loop, but just looking at their website I don't think I'd drive to BA to play mini-basketball and drink beer.

Sounds like I'm being a jerk (and thanks again for the info), but another chain is coming.  Why should I care beyond just the development news?



They are an adult incredible pizza and generally have high dollar games. One of those places great for pre-game or post-game entertainment.

It is only a mile and a half from 169.  I really don't think it will matter.  This might encourage more things in the area which will build that region up.  Some business has to be the first.  I am just happy Dave and Buster's is coming.



The new site has frontage on 169. FYI

I'm glad to hear it's going in Tulsa and not B.A., anybody have a link to the plan?

Frontage on 169?

In Tulsa?

Didn't the story say 71st & 129th... that is in BA and a mile and a half from 169.

Apparently Dave and Busters got pissed at the people in Broken Arrow for not passing some silly tax...

And decided to move.

Or not.

i think i see a lot of tulsans crying in their beer because BA got another coup with D&B.  Personally I could care less, but if it is anything like the one in Denver it will be HUGE.

Hey, at least Tulsa has Incredible Pizza Dumpster.

BA 2 Tulsa 0

Keep em coming....just wait till you see what Bixby has in store just south o the border.

Some may not think it is big news, but I posted it because many have suggested this place in the past. I think it would be great for the Tulsa are to get this. There are only 48 of them so it is not like it is a 1000 unit chain.  

The Tulsa Business Journal is reporting 71st and 129th. Why do you say north of Best Buy?

I live in Broken Arrow and think Tulsa has provided a lot of great places along 71st for the people of Broken Arrow so it would be nice for BA to provide a place like D&B.

If D&B goes to BA, it needs to be by Bass Pro, or the new target, or somewhere like that.

Tulsa could use something like that at I-44 & delaware in the shopping center that construction nearly killed.

There is dirtwork going on behind best buy but I thought that is just for the hotel, although there is a lot of space there. There is also dirtwork and some changed traffic signs for the lot east of woodland hills mall, behind circuit city.

The first time I read that, I thought it said "state of the art stimulators"...and I was intrigued.

TBJ? Don't believe everything you read in print, on the web or see throught the MSM.

It's hard to do, but sometimes you must trust the devil. He has friends in low places.

I've heard that the Cabela's in Bixby was just a crazy rumor.

C'mon give us the scoop about this phantom development down here. God knows we need something...anything.....I can only go to Lowe's or Wal-Mart(which is Tulsa anyway) so many times.
