We had 29 people come out for the Team Serious Invitational to battle some vintage to celebrate Hazard’s birthday for the 4th year in a row!
The drinks:
We messaged Land Grant Brewing in Columbus, Ohio who graciously gave us some free beer! They have employees that play Magic but have never heard of the card Land Grant, so we gave them a foil Land Grant as a Thank You! Thanks Jackie!
