I might go, but I've never been to a major tourney before. Can anyone give me some things to expect in terms of times or how the passes work?

Hey guys!

My name is hart I'm a smash 4 player from DE. I am in kind of an emergency. If anyone can have me in their room for this event I would greatly appreciate it. I am willing to pay for space and sleep on the floor as well! If you or know some one who can help me please feel free to message me on here!

Thanks,

Hart

I'm so happy to see that my city is finally getting the rep it deserves. I also don't have to even go that far either, just a simple drive and I'll be there. This should be very interesting to see in person.
