    BUMP! 

     I have had people email and call me from all over MO and IL.  I already have 15 teams pre-register!!! 

    I hope all the Uptowner guys from Charleston, IL can make it down as well as Melissa Kegg from OH!

     Would love to see Kurt and Gwen make it down as well from Louisville, KY.

    Sorry I can't make it to your party Kurt.  I have a wedding that day.  I know it will be a blast!!!

    Heya Neil...

    I would love to come support your tournament, but I work on Sundays, and I can't make the 6 hour drive home from STL in time for work.  I did that once...never again!  Ugh!   If something crazy happens and I can get that Sunday off work, I'll be there!  But chances aren't good.

    Good luck and I hope you raise lots of money and have tons of fun!

    :)

    Bump this again

     

     

    I'm looking for a strong upper Rookie, AM, or Semi goalie, I don't feel like being in the nets for this unless its for a very strong AM, Semi, or Pro player.

    The line forms out the door and around the corner...

    Sounds like a great turnout!

    BTW, did Nate-Syronis ever get that Jeep he was looking at so he could drive down to your tournament?

    I hope he did.

    There was a Nate Z that played with Dean S, could that have been him?

     

    It was a good time, HotShotz put out some free pizza for us too. Funny thing though I had the most fun playing back for Robert Stalker in some pickup games before the tourney, I played better then than I did when competing...it seems that once the event started all the practicing I did on my fiverow just took a bye-bye and I played like moldy cheese. I guess once a bar hack always a bar hack...

    Hopefully he made it.  I wonder if he bought that Jeep and how it's running.  I'd sure be interested in his take and impressions from his first organized foosball affair.

    Sounds like a good time!  We have our own South Florida Foosball Series every 2-3 months or so (we're up to SFFS 6 now) where we have a weekend from Friday night to Sunday with dubs and sgls events, mostly for our regulars and the Orlando and Jacksonville groups.  We have a break on Sunday afternoon with a Pizza Blast.  Strikers' Lanes brings in pizza after pizza and we have a great time.  That's a great time to sit with and familiarize with ourselves and especially potential partners, including from Orlando and Jacksonville for future IFP or other road trips.

    Yes, Nate Zier made it down.  He played with Dean Sanacruz.  Thank you to all who came out to support this great cause!!

    Hope several out of towners make it down to MO State Nov 14-16.  It will be a blast!!
