This tournament will be a SINGLE EVENT, Draw-Your-Partner Doubles, using regular Stinger's rules and entry fees, with 100% payback plus $500 added by Stinger's Sports Bar and AZ Foosball. Our objective with this event is to get the biggest turnout we can on a single Saturday at Stinger's while also running it as efficiently as possible, and to see if we can keep it economically viable to the sponsor to consider repeating at a regular interval.

"BIG STING" HIGHLIGHTS:

* 3:00 official start time (this is MANDATORY; please show up early)
* Tables will be opened at noon for FREE PLAY until event begins. ($5 table fee for event.)
* Winners paid to 5th place, regardless of turnout.
* Regular Stinger's entry fees ($12 pros, $8 Am/Ex, $5 Beg)
* Standard Stinger's tournament rules (this includes "point card(s)" granted to players with under 2.0 league rating)
* Some or all of loser's side of bracket may be played in abbreviated format depending upon turnout and time considerations (game-to-10 or "7-11" formats likely)
* Match times will be strictly enforced (all players must be at table and ready to play within 5 minutes of match being called or forfeits will be levied)
* 3-4 tables (T-3000 specs) on site.

IMPORTANT NOTES TO PLAYERS:
We ask that all players be aware of the main purpose of this event (specified in opening paragraph) and do their best to help in its success. Please bear in mind that while there may certainly be ways to play through any particular event as rapidly as possible, with the Big Sting we are attempting to strike a happy balance between an event that is fun and popular with a generous payout, and one that also rewards the sponsor with a healthy herd of customers for the evening! There will be a large tournament chart on the wall so that all players can easily see their place in the tournament. Please try to keep the following points in mind:

* You should NOT ask "if your team can play next". Matches will be called in the order that best facilitates the event as a whole - not any one particular team.
* You MAY ask "can you give us an estimate of when our next match will be called?"
* If you are informed that your team is going to be playing on one of the next open tables, please try to locate your partner and opponents and get them ready to play.

Feel free to ask any questions in this thread, or give us a call!

Looking forward to a great time, and hope to see everyone there!
