Skip the alcohol and go to a modern laser tag arena with friends. Insanely fun. They somehow got the Halo 2/3 announcer over a massive intercom system, and they have similar games. Feels like a match from when we were kids!

Skip the alcohol

No.

Depends on the arena. The one in my area, absolutely zero chance of them ever being that cool.

Also, I wouldn't skip the alcohol. How else would I have had a couple full bottles of sake on my 21st if I had skipped it?

We have inexpensive arcades as well, which are a ton of fun. $5 gets you about an hour of entertainment, and I wouldn't go over 10 because you'll probably get bored of the games before you use up your credits if you put too much on it.

Some other options:

go karts - a little expensive for the fancy ones, so shop around
shooting range
trading card game nights at the game shop

These all cost money, but probably not much more than drinking, and they're generally more enjoyable without alcohol. You can show up alone and have a great time, and there's just enough social interaction that you won't feel so alone.

But maybe this is my millenial side showing.
