$500 grand prize, $10 entry fee, only 64 slots available. There's a preregistration on the website using either PayPal or snail mail (which would not be advised considering it's Saturday). I'd have posted sooner but I only found out today in the paper. It says they also accept walkups if space is available. The tournament runs 3-5pm and I'm not sure of any other details. No mention of which game or which console; I emailed them and should get a reply back in the morning (I hope). Also asked whether they'd be HDTVs and whether the $4 general admission is also required, and whether or not there are 2nd, 3rd, etc. prizes.

The ad in the paper says 2nd/3rd prizes of $250/$50, but that would cause them to lose money (maybe they're just for Madden). Also the $4 general admission covers the tournament entry fee? Our paper sucks hard though, so I'll post what information I get confirmed. There's also supposed to be areas where you can try out games, though I don't know how big a draw that would be on here.
