Happy Hour Mario Kart – Super Trashed Bros. @ Dromedary Bar
May 18 @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

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, Rachel Levinson as well as 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! And there are lots of prizes, including a bar tab for the first place competitor!

Peanut Butter Game Jam @ Pete's Candy Store
Jun 29 @ 7:00 pm – 8:11 pm

Welcome to Peanut Butter Game Jam where a handful of game developers will compete for the ultimate prize, a Jar of Grade A Peanut Butter.

Each programmer will have 5-10 minutes to present their own custom video game they created over the last month or two. They will prove to a captivated live audience their respective game is best. 

There will be an Audience Vote at the end to determine the The Peanut Butter Champ! 

The theme of our first show? Peanut Butter. Programmers will have to make a game that somehow incorporates this theme.

Come ready to jam!
