You're near $100,000 when you include the arena flights and prizes, for just the Winter Championship. And you have 3 other Championships this year? Plus these special events you're alluding to? I am really stoaked for MLG this year! The flights, hotel, airport runs, etc for 48 players in a single season is a lot of money. These are not domestic flights, 3/4's (at least) are international. It is over 100k in prize money alone per quarter, not counting T&E spend. | ||

On a related note, I really hope we get the other cities announced in a timely manner so those of us with travel restrictions can make plans with our jobs, school, etc. | ||

Amazing, central convention center with oodles of restaurants in the surrounding area, within a reasonably short drive of every major Northeastern city, incredibly cheap compared to NYC and Boston (and probably DC but I haven't been there in ages) and highly populated with young people. On a related note, I really hope we get the other cities announced in a timely manner so those of us with travel restrictions can make plans with our jobs, school, etc. In your list of items that make a ton of sense, you forgot to mention that PA (and more specifically Philly) is the poster child of Union labor rates for shows like ours. Getting shadowed by union workers to run your show drives up cost exponentially. I love Philly too  | ||
