Title: Mario Kart Release Event - Carmi, IL Wal*Mart - April 26th - Win a free game!
Post by: UncleBob on April 19, 2008, 11:44:11 PM

Hey gang!

On April 26th, starting around 3PM and running up to the Midnight release of Mario Kart Wii, we'll be running an all day Mario Kart event.  During the day, we'll have mini-tournaments featuring titles from the history of the Mario Kart series (Super Mario Kart, Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart: Super Circuit and Mario Kart: Double Dash).  Winning any one of the main mini-tournaments will get you entry into the Mario Kart Wii tournament that will take place around 11 PM.  The winner of this tournament will get a free copy of Mario Kart Wii at Midnight.

The event will take place in Carmi, Illinois at our Wal*Mart Supercenter.  Anyone is welcome (and encouraged) to come!

If you have any questions, just ask!

Is this where you work? Time to google this place! If my younger brother ever goes to Illinois again I might send him to ruin your life look you up!

I would swing by, only 4 hours and all, but, I've got a little one to tend to for while.  Have fun at the event.  Remember pictures.  Say hi to everyone.

So was this as successful as the Smash launch?

Not at all.  Aside from the 11 O'Clock round of Mario Kart: Wii, the most people I had for any one round was seven... :(
