On July 23rd we had 18 people join us for an afternoon of Vintage, broken plays, and friendship!
After 5 rounds of swiss we had our top 8.
David Carroll - Standstill
Justin Hrala - Oath
Shawn Hughes - Eldrazi (playing in his first Vintage event ever & beating me in Round 1 of the Swiss)
William Buck - Merfolk (I think this was his first Vintage as well)
John Hessler - Hate Bears
Tom Andrews - Oath
Josh McCurley - 2-Card Monty (Hey, that's me!)
Mike Ames - Lantern Control
David wins over Mike
Justin beat me quite handily
Shawn beat Tom (fixed if you saw the previous version)
Will beat John in 3
At this point everyone split and went home.
