One part nerd, one part slurred, Super Trashed Bros brings together comedy, video games and alcohol at a super rad bar in Brooklyn. Join comedians Jesse McGrath, Seamus Calder, and Brandon Garner as they virtually battle amongst themselves while physically battling inebriation. Audience participation is essential as a live crowd and online viewers—from the streaming platform Twitch—suggest new rules and new gags. Power-up, throw down and push buttons (in more ways than one)!
This show is a tournament. Drinking jaRules apply!
Also, if you’re not good at video games, you can still win an #Amiibo (the GoodsportsMiibo) for people who cheer the loudest, jeer the funniest, support others, and have the best time. We’re so generous.
FORMAT: 8 Rounds of 4 person free for all (3 stock). The first place competitors from the first 8 rounds face off in 2 final rounds of team (3 stock). The winners of those two rounds face off in a winner-takes-all duel (2 stock). First place takes home a bar tab and (more importantly) bragging rights.
No need to sign up ahead of time, just show up ready to party!

Spades Rules:
We have our very first spades tournament with cash prizes for the winners. When we start the tournament, those that are late will not be able to play so please be punctual to respect the time of others.
We will have either an 8, 12 or 16 player bracket. If 16 show up, we will have a straightforward tourney. If 8 players show up, we will have a losers and winners bracket to extend the tourney and give those defeated a second chance.
Here are some rules so you can look them up and have an idea of what to expect(I will have printouts for each player):
– Top 5 in play – Big Joker, Little Joker, Deuce of Diamonds, Deuce of Spades, Ace of Spades
– Sandbags
– Go for 10 (Bubble) you will either gain 20 or lose 20 depending on the turnout of the hand
– First hand bids itself
– Dealing team bids their hand last
– no Ace check
– no First 7
– Bostons (Team wins all 13 books in a hand) mean an automatic win for that set
