I will be DJ-ing this even. Come check it out!!

Former Nintendo World Champion and Tetris expert Robin Mihara has brought together the greatest Classic Tetris players for an event like no other. For the first time, record holding players from around the country will meet in competition before a live audience. No more internet scoreboards, no more second chances, just a good old fashioned face-to-face live tournament for the ages.

I thought they designed a crazy tetris cart. That goes on forever and has a set patern an all. So they all would play the same game. To be "fare".

The film Crew - Robin, Adam, Dan and I - are currently on the road conducting interviews. We are in the bay area for a few nights, bouncing over to CGE this weekend and then back to LA for more interviews and the competition. See you guys next week!
