The Arcade Olympics
Since 2015, a fine group of friends assemble every Spring to duke it out for the Annual Arcade Olympics! Games are randomly selected from a selection of approximately 100 arcade classics. Records are retained, and the winner of the previous event will go first on the next game, with second place going next, etc. The event continues until all players have played five events.
The Fall Event
Every Fall, the gang assembles for a yet another contest. Think of it as the Intercontinental Championship as opposed the Heavyweight Championship Belt that is the Arcade Olympics. This event is usually themed. Such events as The Kong-Off, where the games played are all Donkey Kong Related, or Pac-Attack, where the games are a random selection of Pac-Man related titles. The list goes on!
The Iron Man Mancathlon
Each Christmas season, we gather to test our might in physical combat... well, more like darts and stuff. Teams are randomly selected and we square off to test our might in challenges such as , billiards, shuffleboard, darts, glide hockey, shuffle-bowling, foosball, ping-pong, etc. Five events are selected and the highest ranking team wins the Iron Man Mancathlon! May the best men win!!!
