Let's get everyone to come to MN! With a $100 pot bonus each for Brawl and Melee, there's something to look forward to for everyone!

It was kinda like a courtesy invite, since I made the event page here, I didn't think I was a stretch to invite you either.

That's really hard to say at this point. The prospects are looking high though. So far we have interest from the following states: Minnesota, Iowa, Utah, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Montana, Kansas, California, and Michigan if you're down. If we get 60+ people in the bracket the pot bonus of $100 will be increased!
