It seemed a good time was had by all. Especially Mr. Kelly who managed to t8 with a rd.1 loss for arriving late.

Props:
Matt Klinkhammer for making the finals of his first ever vintage event(what is it with 1st timers at this location?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?)
Tom Dixon for ending the day with the belt while not running ancestral recall.
Josh Potucek for not splitting and being a good guy.
Shawn Griffiths for playing one of my fave decks ever.
The PSU for coming out deep.
Everyone who came out to jam vintage.
Shawn Tappen for going on to win a GPT for DC*

Slops:
Me. I forgot to publish this yesterday.
Me again. Mr. Kelly shouldn't have had a rd. 1 loss(more than likely). I forgot to enter him when I was informed he'd be late.
*Mark Kinney and Shawn Tappen for not showing up. Boo sirs. Boo!
Illness. It kept a certain someone from showing up.
Construction on the roads in PA. Kept even more folk from jamming vintage.

Looking forward to the next event in October. I plan to hold 2 events next month. One here at the usual location(same bat time, same bat channel) and one in Harrisburg at The Adventure's Guild.

Cheers,
Cal
