Wiimbledon Comes to Brooklyn

Details are emerging about the Wii Tennis tournament going down at Barcade in Brooklyn on Saturday June 23rd from 12-5pm. It's going to be a single elimination singles tournament consisting of "Best of 5" matches with unspecified prizes going to the winner, the runner-up, and at least four other "bonus" categories (such as best costume, most athletic, most dangerous (?) and shortest shorts).

There will be three chances to register for the event at wiimbledon.net/signup.html, the first being at 12 noon on Monday and then again on Tuesday and Wednesday at the same time. Be prepared to give them a Real Name, a Playing Name, a Team Name (purely ceremonial, there aren't really "teams") and a skill level (either Beg, Int, Adv or your Mii's skill number). Registration appears to be FREE. If you aren't lucky enough to make the cut those days, some walk-ins will be accepted the day of the tourney.

So sign up! We'll be there representing the G'nerd, acein' some fools.
