The MollyWhop is returning! The now bi-weekly tournament was a longtime staple in the upper New York Smash community but has been on hiatus for more than six months. The original Smash 914 team is back at the same awesome venue and we're looking to pick up right where we left off.
The venue fee will remain at $5 for tournament players, and spectators are free! We'll also be adding Street Fighter V and some other fighters to the mix, so come get a piece of the action!
Though the venue is a pub, people under 21 are still welcome to come. Wristbands will be given out if necessary and we ask that you respect both the bartender and the law. Even if you can't drink, Molly's has a full food menu too, so try and support the venue so we can keep these events going.
