My Culture / 05.27.09, 01:18 PM

I like video games. While at work, I like to listen to podcasts of people talking about them. It’s a culture, and I am a part of that culture. This month I had the opportunity to help run a video game tourney, my first one ever. It was a blast.

There were sixteen gaming machines total. There were four different games and the winner from each game went to the final. While some of them played, the ones who were waiting had pizza and coke. To put it into perspective, there were 70 or so kids and 75 pizzas from Little Caesar’s. Finally after two or three hours, the winners faced off to see who could go the farthest on one life in the original Mario Bros. Everyone sang along with the various (and most memorable) soundtracks. The winner won an Xbox.
