1)Does he/do we play starcraft? -This one is an easy answer, of course we all play! If it wasn't for my borderline obsession there is no chance that he would be as interested as he is. Last November we set up a second computer in the computer room and we play together quite often. Here is a video of him playing today 2) How exactly does a 5 year old even get exposed to starcraft; so much that he has favorite players? -Well I think honestly it was the exact right mix of technology, community and timing for something like this to occur. We are very young parents (mid-twenties), just so happened to stumble on this amazing community, got sucked in, and had the technological know how to make everything just work. You aren't going to find many households where the main tv is hooked up to the internet 24/7 with every major tournament streamed as if you found it on cable. Add to the fact that I pretty much switched from watching hockey two years ago to screaming for SC2 players like any other sport, and you can understand how it was just kinda natural . The same way you have kids that have a love for football or what ever other sport Daddy happens to be interested in. 3) Did he really know all of those people? -You better believe it! The only reason we got to meet Day[9] was because as my wife took him to the restroom he kept yelling "WHEN AM I GOING TO GET TO SEE DAY[9]!"...... Day[9] is perfect for kids his energy level is just amazing and my son likes nothing better than to watch him play skyrim, or to hear him go on a rant about his day. While he did want to meet the players, Day[9] was what he really wanted to see. MC did make an impression though, as while we were watching MC vs Ret he said "I want MC to win, he picked me up". 4) Are you really the best father in the world? -Yes....just kidding. To be honest I almost made us miss the event. His mother (who is the best mom) wanted to buy tickets as soon as the event was announced. I wasn't so sure however; as I didn't know who would make it out of the brackets or how good of an event it would turn out to be and it was a pretty far drive. She was the one who realised how close it would be to his birthday and pushed for us to go even before the casters and final players were decided. It didn't hurt when her favourite player Idra was announced as a caster though. All in all, what an event! NASL has definitely won over another e-sports customer/family.

Your baby was the one with the one piece 'n00b' shirt wasn't he? =O Unfortunately I was not responsible for all of the babies at this event, as that was not what he was wearing :/ | ||
