A Piece of Houston History: The Funplex Liquidation Auction

For years, Funplex on Beechnut Street was a beacon of fun for Houstonians. It was the kind of place where you could spend hours challenging friends at the arcade, perfecting your strike at the bowling alley, or feeling the thrill of a roller coaster all under one roof. Sadly, those days are now behind us, as the iconic indoor amusement park is being liquidated for redevelopment.

But here's the silver lining for those who cherished their Funplex memories: you now have a unique opportunity to own a piece of that history! Everything from arcade games and go-karts to bowling equipment and even parts of the roller coaster are up for grabs in a massive liquidation auction. Imagine having an authentic Funplex air hockey table in your game room or a piece of the park's vibrant signage!

This is more than just an auction; it's a chance to preserve a tangible memory of a beloved Houston landmark. Whether you're a collector, a business owner looking for equipment, or simply someone who wants to hold onto a bit of nostalgia, this event is not to be missed.
