Philadelphia, PA (NorthEastern Championship 9)
Rockaway said it best when him and I took the New York bus to Philly: "It's the last stand to make everything count." And it was only fair that we went overnight to reserve one of the final spots in the hotel.
Two ironies came to be right before we set in the hotel...
-The fact that the night time of Philly's Chinatown acts and feels as if it was a Friday night, but without the insane razzle and dazzle of the people from Chinatown Fair- good in both senses: less noise and less drama.
-The fact that more police were around the area acted as if something were to go down hard, especially since they're parked exactly behind, adjacent, and in front of the nearby hotels and 24-hour convenient stores.
By the time our trip took us to the hotel, and $20 bucks less, there were problems, not to mention the absence of an actual manager who wouldn't help with suitable information to let us know that the reservations I set up last monthwere null and void since the discounts set for the hotel were only for LAST year's gamers tournament.
As of now, we didn't let that stop us. All we wanted to do was game. Not only were we the first people there, but we managed to check out the bigger room that's used for our two day event.
Our rivalries are as follows:
Street Fighter Super Turbo-LIVE ACTION SATURN VERSION!- Sawada vs. Zangief
Virtua Fighter 2- Lau vs. Jacky
Capcom Vs SNK- (Ratio 1 Deathmatch): Sakura/Ken/EX Terry/EX Ryo vs. EX King/Gief/Balrog/EX Honda
(Regular Match)-EX Sakura/EX Beni/EX Ryo vs. EX Beni/Ex King/Gief
Super Turbo: Fur Affinity '08 deadliest matchup- FeiLong vs. Honda
Street Fighter 4: Red Cyclone Year (Zangief) vs. Raul Julia (Bison)
KOF 98 UM: EX Blue Mary/Geeze/Shings vs. Benimaur/Brian Battler/Ralf Jonez
KOF XI: Adel/Guytendo/Eiji vs/ Beni/Sie/Ralf
Samurai Spirits Tenkaichi Kakuden: Cham Cham/Yumeji vs. Wan Fu/Kyoshiro/Albert
3rd Strike: Sean vs. Necro (Brazil vs. Russia: Fur Affinity World Cup Championsip 2008)
Apparently, that's just for one day. Only two more days more of this craziness and I can relax back to reality come next week when Giants play Eagles in Giants Stadium. If they win, the clinch 1st in the NFC East- and force the rest of their teams in the conference fight for a wild card berth.
Tomrrow, I'll update more infomation and hope to whoever's out there that Dark Geese arrives to help all of us split the hotel room. Stupid management screwd us all over again.
