25 teams will be invited to the First Annual JGT Summer Invitational, which will be held on the afternoon of Sunday, August 15th at the Urban Saloon, and which will award an $800 purse (and the prestigious “Milton Street Memorial Cup”). But you must earn your invite. Here’s how: In the next 7 weeks, we will keep track of all of our 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place Teams. Teams will get 5 points for a first place finish, 3 points for a 2nd place finish, and teams that finish 3rd will get one point. Furthermore, I may very well throw in a few more fun ways for teams to earn points, just to add a little intrigue. The Top 25 scoring teams after 7 weeks get an invite. In addition, the Top 10 scoring teams over the next several weeks will be entered in a drawing to win another $200 in cash*. $400 for 1st Place at the Invitational, $200 for 2nd place, and $200 for the drawing. (Yes, there will be an entry fee to the event, but only like $10, to help maybe get us a little entertainment.)
To play in the Invitational itself, each player on the team must have played with the team at least once (Unless you have a player coming in from out of state for the event) in the previous 7 weeks. For the next several weeks, please come up with a team name that you are happy with so I can keep track of your team more easily. This is going to be a lot of fun, and kicks off with quizzo at the Westbury tonight at 10:15 p.m. Get your best team together. Remember, you can have up to 8 people on a team. Call your nerd friends and tell them you really need their help for the next two months. And spread the word by clicking “Like” below!
*You must be present at the Invitational to win the drawing.
what time is this going to be?
Most likely 3ish.
Negative points for guys from Fishtown?
Please…no “entertainment.” Please. Pretty please. Put the money in the purse and play a “Totally 80's” CD between rounds. Or KidzBop. Anything but “entertainment.” Please.
Did I just hear someone say “Live Showtunes”?
