The wait is nearly over as Topgolf Baton Rouge is set to open this Friday, January 11th.

The facility is located on North Mall Drive just off I-10 near Siegen Lane.

What is Topgolf you ask? Well, it's a game that those with or without golfing ability can enjoy.

You rent a "bay" and hit micro-chipped golf balls at giant dartboard-like targets on an outfield. The closer you get your ball to the center or "bullseye" and the further the distance, the more points you earn.

The Baton Rouge location has a total of 72 climate-controlled hitting bays, a full-service restaurant & bars, private events spaces & meeting rooms, rooftop terrace with fire pits, hundreds of HDTVs and tons more.

Don't want to wait until this weekend to see what it's all about? The Advocate recently took a tour of the facility and they have a nice picture gallery you can view here.

Topgolf has nearly 60 locations but the Baton Rouge facility will be the only one between Houston and Birmingham.
