Abstract
A fixed domed structure, and a pair of movable units each having an arena for playing a game thereon. The fixed structure includes fixed amphitheater seats around a center void where a movable unit is located when in active position. One of the movable units also includes bleacher seats carried thereby, surrounding a smaller arena. When this latter movable unit is in active position, the bleacher seats form a continuation of the fixed amphitheater seats.
