Calendar
Come celebrate the release of Smash Ultimate with us and play for the chance to win a $100 gift card to Alamo Draft House!
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!
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.
NEW TOURNEY FORMAT: 8 Rounds of 4-player free-for-all (6 stock). The first place competitors from the first 8 rounds face off in 2 final rounds of 4-player free-for-all (3 stock). The winner of those two rounds face off in a 1-v-1 winner-takes-all duel (2 stock).
No need to sign up ahead of time, just show up ready to party!
