Topic: South Carolina State Results- Bonzini U.S.A.

[Alan Cribbs]

I'll have the results up this afternoon. I just wanted to get this topic posted tonight with a few notes.
We had 46 players register. Out of the 46 players, 20 were first time Bonzini U.S.A. event participants.
It was a great event and I learned alot about hosting an event in a patio area. It can get freakin hot and humid.
I'll modifiy this topic with results and further comments a little later.

Friends,

South Carolina States on Bonzini was great. The SC players did a wonderful job of hosting and welcoming players. I was glad to put faces to the names of a few players from this board (Rebecca, Todd) and to finally meet some others that have really helped with Bonzini foosball over the years.

Alan - you hold important events and I am glad to be a part of the Bonzini USA experience.

More after results get posted...................................Tyler

Hi Alan

I can't thank you enough for the great experience this past weekend.  My mission was to have fun, meet some new people and learn from some great players.  Mission accomplished!

I felt really welcome by you and Gloria, Tyler, Rebecca, Bobby et al and will certainly do it again.

So are Tropical-like storm tournament delays common place?

Was that not a freakish storm?  15 minutes of sideways rain and hail...followed by more sunshine!!

Great event, I had alot of fun.  It was a pleasure to meet MrBasso (great guy!!)  and to see Tyler again.  Great seeing everyone asle as well.

Todd,

That was a freak storm that kicked-up. I appreciate the way the players pulled the tables in and got them covered up. I really enjoyed to finally meet you and look forward to your possible return in October at the NC state. We had so many new people this time around I was spread a little thin. I hope you received a good indication of how a Bonzini U.S.A. Foosball Tour event is held and how we try to create a different atmosphere for the players. We had a great crowd and it was a good experience for me seeing how a patio set-up would run. And you did get to see the thrashing I gave Bruce before the tournament started.

Tyler,

Great to see you again. And congrats on the Novice Doubles title with Joe! Way to go!
Sure hope you make it back to an event soon.
BTW, we raised $800.00 for the Alzheimer's Assoc. Not bad for a first time event in SC.
Continue your great work in Clay county and thanks for being a great ambassador for Bonzini U.S.A.

Pat,

I've been hitting the bench press getting ready for Eaubonne.
Let's do some damage at the Bonzini Worlds.

And congrats to Larry and Oksana Davis on their new addition.
