The Highball is making a legitimate run at the title of "Most Awesome Karaoke Bar." The newly remolded singing spot is located in Austin, Texas, and features a variety of themed rooms inspired by movies, video games and freak shows. Yup, that's a two-headed goat table in one of the rooms.
The Super Mario Bros room holds a Pac-Man arcade table and is decked out with an awesome paint job. Those who are a fan of cult television will be all over the Twin Peaks room. Themed karaoke bars are nothing new, but The Highball has taken things to another level with its epic redecorating. The karaoke room is attached to the South Lamar Alamo Drafthouse, which also received a remodel and now comes complete with a 'The Shining' entrance.
