Our first Clash at the Cradle Vintage Event had 37 players paying out to the top 8. To be honest I was a bit nervous being my first big event outside Depot. I couldn't be happier with the event. Everything went on on time and very smoothly. The vintage judge staff was amazing with little or no problems. We are doing this again but on a Saturday next time. We are working on a date but I'm hopeful for November but its too early yet.
The Comic Book Depot next 2 vintage events is FNM May 5th at 8pm and May 28th 1k NYSE qualifier.
