Just as the title says, this thread is for the purpose of finding a van with SMASH IN THE CAR (*cough*EGGM*cough*) to go to Niagra (located just outside of New York) Canada for the 3 day huge Melee + Brawl tourney that will most likely be the week before Genesis (but if necessary, 2 weeks before Genesis). It's going to be really fun, and we should all find a ride in other words bug Eggm to get his van for us all to ride in. I remember last year riding it it fit like 7 people and we had smash in the whole car ride so it was really fun the entire time. If anyone out there would like to be a hero and offer to let us borrow one of their cars/vans with smash hooked up to it (OTHERWISE IT'S BORING), then that would be awesome! Once we find what car we are taking, we can bring like ~7 people along.

This is the last tourney in Niagra (which is really close to New York / driving distance from east coast, and everything else will be so far away it's not even worth driving to) that they are having so let's ****ing visit the place for once since this is our only good opportunity to do so.

here is the thread - http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=228915

Passports are not required to get into Canada but highly recommended whenever you travel outside the country. And even if you don't have a passport you need some sort of government-issued ID at the very least (driver's license etc.)

The Canadian guy who welcomed me into Canada was cool. Ironically, the woman working on the American side was a total **** to me.

For the record, it has been reported that Canadian officials have been taking laptops and mp3 players if they suspect that there is pirated music on it.

Reasons to bring Pierce:

A) Pierce is funny, while still nice, and gets along with everyone
B) Pierce is good at Brawl, and desperately wants to learn Melee
C) Pierce is 18, hence old enough to go.
D) Pierce is not boring to fight in Brawl, as he tends not to camp, and has a unique style.
E) Pierce wants to see Mow again <3
F) Pierce has never been off the East Coast, or out of the country.

This sounds like it could be fun

What's the date again? I need to check it. I would rather go to canada in the summer than go to genesis.

You're all still coming, right? ^_^
