Are you interested in establishing a local fighting game community in the Antelope Valley? Hello, my name is Jeremy and I work in conjunction with a local comic and manga store in Palmdale named Versus Comics and Manga. It is my goal to foster a successful weekly or biweekly fighting game tournament locally here in Palmdale so I have a place I can play and level up in person. I welcome tournament entrants and spectators to come to VS Comics this Saturday to participate in our second Ultra Street Fighter 4 tournament, with your support we can help create a local place to play and practice with new friends and rivals.
Here is some information about the tournament that you will need:
