Additionally: This particular BarCraft is going to be a blowout bash, with all three floors showing the Arena on over 40 TVs. MLG staff will be on hand to provide you with special swag and contests. And who knows? Some of the pros might just show up to hang out and sign autographs.
•MLG shirts, given away throughout the weekend •Drink specials: Terran, Protoss and Zerg specific, as well as beer specials •Photos and video from the Event might even make their way onto the Arena streams- live!
Tell everyone you know! Spread the word! Huge turnouts are what will keep this phenomenon going and make more of these events happen in the future. Don't be afraid to invite non-gamers to this. Everyone likes beer and excitement! Proceeds from this barcraft will go into funding future ONOG Invitationals as well as other local eSports events.
Competitive video game competitions (electronic sports or "eSports") is an exciting, quickly growing phenomenon. Leagues featuring prize pools of $100,000 or even more are springing up across the globe. Major League Gaming (MLG), the North American Star League (NASL), the Global Starcraft II League (GSL), Intel Extreme Masters (IEM), Dreamhack, and countless others stream live tournaments of the most popular video games between the best players worldwide. Announcers call the fast-paced action live as it happens. Now you can enjoy eSports and all the gaming action on the big screens at sports bars in a city near you. Come out and enjoy the gaming action, food, and perhaps Zerg rush a few beers. If you're new to gaming, come see why the Wall Street Journal has called eSports the, “newest barroom spectator sport.”

Legends is awesome, there are like 6 TV's across the bar but they are high but not too high where its annoying.

Do we know yet where the venue is for the actual sc2 event? This may impact stuff regarding the barcraft.

It's the MLG Studio on 33rd and Park I believe, but there are no spectators allowed. I wonder if we could get players to come by - 10 min walk assuming they're using their normal studio.
