Aladdin’s Castle: White Mountain Mall

White Mountain Mall at 2441 Foothill Boulevard in Rock Springs, Wyoming, opened in 1984. The Aladdin’s Castle arcade occupied the northwest corner of the food-court wing by the late 1980s, featuring staples like Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, and early Namco racing cabinets.

Local newspaper clippings from the early 1990s advertise weekend “Family Fun Nights” at the arcade, and community Facebook groups recall its black-light carpet and the ring of redemption tickets.

The arcade closed circa 2001 when the mall restructured to add more retail outlets; in its place now stands a youth-activity center, though older Sweetwater County residents still share photos of AC’s neon portal.
