They also played laser tag and did rock climbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our laser tag field, it almost looks like a battlefield kind of setup,&#8221; said Butter and Egg Adventures Manager Natalie Carnley. &#8220;That&#8217;s the theme for our laser tag and so there&#8217;s all kinds of bunkers that you can hide behind. It&#8217;s just really fun to do that at night. It gives a different feel for sure.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might have noticed that it does not look as dark as people expect when they hear &#8220;zip lining in the dark.&#8221; This is because the UAC decided to start a little bit earlier than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We planned to do it a little earlier during the day so people can actually zip line during the daytime instead of at night,&#8221; Blackmon explained. &#8220;A lot of people didn&#8217;t like night and they wanted to do it during the day. I&#8217;ve never ziplined during the day. This is going to be my first time, actually ,so I&#8217;m pretty excited to actually see myself ziplining and be able to actually see the trees and see everything<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The UAC is able to host events at Butter and Egg Adventures thanks to a partnership between Troy University and Butter and Egg.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TROY, Ala.
