MLG Acquires $10 million Recliner
With the recent acquisition of $10 million in funding, Major League Gaming announced that they have solved their seating issues for future events:

Sundance DiGiovanni, CEO of Major League Gaming, said in a press release, "Now no one can say we haven't spent any money on seating for our events. Plus, have you seen the chair? It's fucking leather!"
Some people questioned spending so much money on one item, but MLG representative, World of Warcraft enthusiast, and awful Starcraft 2 player, J.P. McDaniel, defended MLG's decision, "MLG prides itself on listening to the community. We felt that seating was an important issue and that we really needed to throw money at it. I think people will see that the money was well spent. I mean, it's fucking leather!"
MLG plans on keeping the chair in their New York City office as transporting it to each event would risk damaging it. It is leather after all.
All quotes are made up and do not reflect the views of Major League Gaming, Sundance DiGiovanni, and J.P. McDaniel. This is satire, don't take it seriously. So there.
I plan on making more articles like this to truly show off how unfunny I am and my awful photo editing skills.

NO WAY!!!! I was totally never going to another MLG again after my horrible back aches, but this next time I can live in comfort. My only question is do we have to call dibs? shotgun? shotgun no rock? I mean, I can't handle the back pain again!

I really want that chair

#1 thing to promote SC in the US seems to somehow sell SC to MLG so that they will trust it's potential enough to fund it properly. As an armchair theorist, I really have no clue how to go about it. MLG as mentioned in other threads was born and raised to showcase halo, and SC becoming a comparable game to halo in their circuit has no precedent.

Hahaha that was pretty good OP

Pretty funny, although adding any variation of JP's overused "shit on/shitting all over" phrase would have been ace.
Hopefully MLG invests in some real seating for next year.

LMAO this blog is soooooo a 5/5!

Reminds me of the Onion article, where to solve unemployment, Congress creates one amazing new job.

Loooooooooooooooool. I remember when Incontrol was making fun of MLG's seating arrangements and how they had 10 benches for 400 spectators.
This is great.

Gotta say I am a fan of the extended series version, but it might have been a little too pricy for MLG to afford right now.

You sir win the internet. Obviously the next SoTG podcast must discuss if having an extended series chair is fair... lol

It's obviously better since no one else does it. End of discussion.

The big question is if that's how they do it in Halo.... important stuff.

MLG needed to make sure that the Halo players had seating they could identify with, but that still gives off the luxury of fucking leather! So they went a little more downscale:
+ Show Spoiler +
Futons of course only come in extended series.

so i guess that means the lucky dude that comes first to reserve the chair is actually not so lucky because he will never be able to go to the bathroom (while maintaining the seat)

ROFL. Nice one. Can't believe I missed this until just now.
Also, it's Sundance DiGiovanni.

Haha so great.
So Lee, who get's to sit the chair the most? Is there a schedule?

It's not, the two people on the side are guaranteed at least one arm rest. The person in the middle must fight 2 people for arm rests and can end up with zero whereas the two people on the side only has to 1v1 and will never end up with no arm rests. Should switch to completely separate seats.

Glad to have official MLG approval
I knew I had his name wrong, but I put this together quickly and was too lazy to go back and correct it. It's fixed now.
I got another article that I just finished up and will be posted tomorrow. Stay Tuned!
