Laser tag also occurred while the friendly brotherhood game of assassins was going on. Brothers show up to laser tag in...

BOO! Did we scare you?
The Brotherhood decided to let down their business savvy suits and make the trek through the woods. The HAUNTED woods that is. The group went on a private tour of Markoff’s Haunted Forest on Friday, Oct. 22 where they got spooked by the woods but relieved all those scattered nerves at the bonfire…
