Bridgewater Grad's Survival Laser Tag Moves To Menlo Park Mall

Bullseye Lasertag, an intense tactical experience started by BRHS graduate Vic Pellegrini, is opening the indoor battlefield this weekend.

BRIDGEWATER, NJ — Bridgewater native Vic Pellegrini is moving his intense tactical laser tag experience to the Menlo Park Mall. Bullseye Virtual Combat will kick off its grand opening this weekend from noon to 6 p.m. with half price sessions all day.

Pellegrini, a Bridgewater-Raritan Regional High School graduate, had originally opened Bullseye Virtual Combat on Schaefer Farms in Flemington in 2017. Now he is moving it indoors.

"I had reached out to the mall management about a possible zombie event in the original underground mall. Insurance and logistics made this difficult, but they liked our company and showed me this vacant building with the remnants of a design studio which worked well for our laser tag concept. The population density and proximity to my Alma Mater, Rutgers, made this a top choice for an indoor field for us," Pellegrini said.

Bullseye will be located in the former Toll Brothers Design Studio at 200 Menlo Park Dr. in Edison, which is directly next to the Fox and Hound Bar and Grill.

The new space will offer just over 13,000 square feet and a battlefield of around 10,000 square feet — "making it one of the largest indoor fields in the northeast," Pellegrini said.

Bullseye offers a playing field filled with obstacles where players get to battle it out with very realistic weapons including AR-15 replicas that have actual recoil from CO2 charged magazines.

Compared to his former location, Pellegrini can now offer much more including: walk-on hours, special events, food and drink specials with local shops and a party room.

"Our one-of-a-kind custom private parties can now enjoy a party room to eat and drink after their exciting laser tag session," Pellegrini said.
