Ice Den – North Scottsdale, AZ

Like the best-tasting pieces of Halloween candy, shoes are better when they have blades attached to them. Appreciate edgy footwear with today's Groupon to Ice Den in Scottsdale. Choose between the following options:
•
For $15, you get a weekend ice-skating outing for two (up to a $30 total value) that includes:
•Two open-skate admissions (up to a $7 value each)
•Two skate rentals (up to a $4 value each)
•One dessert at the Ice Den's 18º Neighborhood Grill (up to an $8 value)



•
For $28, you get a weekend ice-skating outing for four (up to a $60 total value) that includes:
•Four open-skate admissions (up to a $7 value each)
•Four skate rentals (up to a $4 value each)
•Two desserts at the Ice Den's 18º Neighborhood Grill (up to an $8 value each)




Both deals are valid for any open-skate time on Saturday or Sunday.

Ice Den's 120,000-square-foot facility hosts two NHL-sized indoor ice rinks where the Coyotes practice and the public plays, earning recognition as one of USA Today's 10 Great Places to Cut a Fine Figure Eight. Ice skimmers lace up their choice from 800 pairs of hockey skates, figure skates, or sneakers with butcher knives taped to the bottom, available in toddler size 6 through adult size 15, before spinning triple axels in the crisp 53-degree air. Wee ones can also rent skate trainers ($3, not covered by this deal) and build their ice legs in a small coned-off area.

Dessert-seeking skaters catch their breath at the Ice Den's 18º Neighborhood Grill, where vanilla ice cream scoops into floats, powdered sugar sprinkles fried dough, and buttermilk-cream-cheese frosting lavishes fresh cinnamon rolls. On Radio Disney nights, club lighting flashes as a DJ spins tunes, and TRL nights pair a laser light show with door prizes and a DJ who makes ice-sculpture portraits of each guest.

Kirkwood Ice Skating Rink
Kirkwood, Missouri

If woolly mammoths had mastered the triple Lutz, they would've made it out of the Ice Age and into the Bronze Age, if not the Silver or Gold Age. Ensure your long-term survival with today's Groupon to Kirkwood Ice Skating Rink. Choose from the following options:
• For $6, you get an ice-skating outing for two (up to a $12 value).
• For $11, you get an ice-skating outing for four (up to a $24 value).
• For $16, you get an ice-skating outing for six (up to a $36 value)

Each outing includes:
• Admission to public skate (up to a $4 value each)
• Skate rental (a $2 value each)

At Kirkwood Ice Skating Rink, skaters etch thin whiskers onto the frozen face of a year-round indoor rink that houses five locker rooms, a warming area, and other ice-indulging amenities. Kirkwood's calendar offers up 90- or 120-minute public-skating sessions daily, welcoming all types of frozen-water walkers regardless of age, ability, or Abominable Snowman genealogy. After grabbing a pair of rental skates, strap them on near the heat billowing from the warming area's ventless fireplace, before gliding onto the glossy wintry pane to share the same arctic air as Olympic stars, former NHL players, and other heralded athletes from the rink's rich history. With each lap, solid-sea legs thaw and confidence builds, prompting skaters to leave the side rails and attempt possible tricks highlighted by the facility's natural lighting, or backward-skate straight into the center ice via its military-grade magnet.

I wish I knew what the last sentence meant.
