Tetris Tournament




Gallery: The Lab
Date: Saturday, December 12th at 8pm



Bryan Von Reuter organizes a Tetris battle with live music for your game geek pleasure. Tetris will be projected gonzo-sized on the wall of the gallery and the games will proceed March Madness style. A winner will emerge victorious to take the title and the prize (stay tuned for prize updates). Sign-up takes place the night of the event.
