Hey guys, I wanted to make this thread so we can have an organized spot for discussion on local BarCraft.
As of right now, we are working on getting Buffalo Wild Wings on board for this weekend's MLG event. I feel like they would be able to accommodate the 3 major local schools (MCC and RIT are close and UofR isn't too far either). I plan on presenting the idea to them tomorrow, showing them some successful BarCraft events, and a schedule of the event. I can't imagine them turning us down if we help them set up the streams and only request a couple TVs. They have a nice room in the back of the restaurant that I was planing on asking for, as we could get sound back there without disturbing anyone else watching something. With the potential to call themselves "THE place in Rochester for BarCraft" on the line, I think this is a good opportunity that they likely won't turn down, especially if we can guarantee a good crowd (this is pretty much the most important part).
A backup plan would involve Hooligans, as they have some more private booths that can accommodate around 8 or 9 people. The problem here would be only watching 1 stream at a time, which is UNACCEPTABLE 
Feel free to PM me, as help with this would be nice but I don't have an issue taking the lead on this 
GLHF
EDIT: BarCraft does NOT necessarily mean 21+!!!! Most establishments that we are looking into holding the events at are restaurants that allow ALL ages. DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY "BAR" IN THE NAME!!!

Rochester represent! :D
I'd definitely go
|
hey, its imolmantis from UR, i know atleast 4-5 guys aside from me that would definetly want to come
|
This would be excellent. It would be the one on Jefferson, right? I go there for UFC events and I know which "back room" you're talking about, it's semi-walled off but still gets good service on food/drinks.
Keep us all updated!

I'm in Oswego, and might show up to this this weekend if you guys get it off the ground. I wouldn't mind the hour drive to hang out with some fellow sc2 nerds and watch some MLG. Wouldn't be able to show up every night, but definitely either Saturday or Sunday.
|

I'll definitely come if I can. I know the RIT Starcraft club would be very likely to go, and there's at least 20 of us.
|
So sad I'm cooping away from Rochester right now (RIT student), but make this one a success and I'll be at every single barcraft from MLG providence and on!
|
RIT student here.
Got a major project due Sunday night but if I finish early I will definitely show up.
|
I go to SUNY Fredonia but with enough planning and assuming the conditions are right you better count me in to this, I just need to plan. Unfortunately, theres no way I can come to this in the next couple days 
|
Not sure on whether we would be able to get Sunday locked in because of the high demand for football, but Saturday is definitely a solid day. MCC plays UofR in the CSL Saturday at 4 so I was thinking we could all head over to B Dubs and hang afterwards. It's located on Jefferson so anyone that will be at Millennium wouldn't have to drive far.
If we could get 20 people from RIT, a handful from MCC, sone UofR guys, and some out-of-towners, this might have the potential to be a regular event (Blizzcon anyone???)
I'll keep checking here today and keep everyone posted. Fingers crossed!!
|
RIT student here, and I'd be up for meeting new people!
|
UR student here. Im definitely in.
|
I'd go but i'll be in orlando D: :D
|
I'll go, even if at cost to my own health yea buddyyyyyyyy
|
I would defiantly go but this weekend I had prior plans... If you guys set it up for Blizzcon count me in.
Edit: I prob could drag 1-2 of my roommates to this too.
|
I'm 18, can I still come? (RIT)
|
If you are under 21 I'm pretty sure you can still come since buffalo wild wings is both a restaurant/sports bar.
|
Buffalo Wild Wings is a restaurant. Anyone any age is welcome. The only issue might be if they forced us to sit at the bar, which is highly unlikely.
|
im going to suny geneseo which is 25 mins south of rochester, i would attend some events occasionally
