Hello, my name is Romeo. I am this tournament’s organizer. If you have any questions/comments, feel free to ask. Please post if you intend on entering; I like to get a general headcount to get a better idea of what I’m handling.
REMINDER - Under all circumstances, please do NOT bring outside food and drink inside. Finish it outside the venue before you come in. One of the owners has respectfully voiced her concerns about this, so let’s try to cater to our hosts’ concerns. If I see you with outside food or drink inside the venue, I will ask you to go outside and finish whatever you’re eating or drinking. Please remind your fellow players as well. Thank you.
When
August 12th - Friday at 5:30PM. Signups begin at 5:30PM.
Where
Tapioca Express 9105 Bruceville Rd. #3A
Elk Grove, CA 95758
TapEx is known for its boba (bubble tea) drinks, popcorn chicken and calamari, and for it being the quintessential Asian hangout spot 
. Free WiFi for those who are so inclined.
How much?
