Atlantic South [Mar 22, 2015] Smash Homelessness (Orlando, Florida)

[Dr. Z]

This Sunday Player 1 Video Game Bar will be hosting a Smash 4 tournament that will benefit Coalition for the Homeless. This is a bar so the tournament will be a 21 and up event. Entry fee will be 10$ (Or 8$ with a donation to Coalition for the Homeless). There will be 70$ added to the pot. You will need to bring your own controller. Rules set will be same as Paragon and will be double elimination.

Fee break down is as follows:
5$ goes to venue
3$ goes to tournament pot
2$ goes to Coalition for the Homeless (This will be waived if you bring a donation instead)
= 10$

I guarantee this tournament will be Double Elimination. To make this go smoothly we may need additional Wii U set ups. Anyone who brings there Wii U with Smash and gamecube adapter will be able to enter the tournament for 5$.

Possible donations to bring to waive 2$ would be clothes, blankets, puzzles, board games, toothbrushes, deodorant, etc. Basically anything that is in good condition. Please do not bring food as a donation.

If there are 16 attending or less
1st place: 70% cash
2nd place: 30% cash

If there are 32 or more attending
1st place: 60% cash
2nd place: 25% cash
3rd place: 15% cash

Practice starts at 4:00pm
Tournament will start at 6:00pm

Previous tournament had 45 participants. We are shooting for 60 this time!!! Max will be 80.

Hi Brandon,

I'm sorry if it was up to me I would let you enter in the tournament. However the owners don't want the liability of having anyone underage which is understandable. I have been looking into other venues around UCF so we can host tournaments for all age events. If in the future this becomes a reality I'll post on Smashboards the event.

Thanks,
