Chicago for Child's Play, sponsored by Dawdle.com and Midway Games!
What: Gaming, drinking, and prize-winning - all for a great cause!
Since 2003, over 100,000 gamers worldwide have banded together through Child’s Play, a community based charity grown and nurtured from the game culture and industry. Over two million dollars in donations of toys, games, books and cash for sick kids in children’s hospitals across North America and the world have been collected since the inception of Child's Play.
• We're going to have a Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe tournament - so practice your Kombos, Freefall Kombat, and Klose Kombat skills!
• Drink some of Chicago's finest beers! And hard liquors! And wine!
• In addition to the drinks and games, we'll have some raffle prizes! You can get additional raffle tickets are $10 each, and your admission gets you one entry into the raffle.
When: Tuesday, December 9: 7PM - 10PM

How: Show up ready to play games, drink top-quality brews/liquors/wine, and buy tickets to win prizes.

We're working on roping in some more sponsors - if you know a group who might be interested in sponsoring or donating raffle prizes, please have them contact community@dawdle.com.
Totally inspired by Fünde Razor, created by Joel Johnson and Brian Crecente. Thanks guys!
