Overall

Players will be put into random groups of 4 and then play on a random machine. The players with the two lowest scores get a strike, in 3 player groups only the lowest score gets a strike. Once you have two strikes you are out.

The tournament features a survivor style with 2 strikes so everyone can enjoy multiple games! You don't need to be the highest score in your group to advance!

Free pizza to all players, plus additional cash and prizes!
