How high can YOU try?

Grinkfest 5 has come and gone. We had a record turnout this year and people had more fun than ever with the introduction of NATT challenges (don't ask, you just had to have been there to see it). Here are some numbers to chew on.

Total participants: 147 (highest total ever!)
Total tournaments: 6 (I think... 5 at least)
# of scores taken during Grinkfest: 2089

Grinkfest 6 will be slated for the 2nd weekend in October 2018. Mark your calendars!

Monday, June 19th, 2017 at 5pm - Galloping Ghost Arcade will reach an important milestone in unveiling game #600 on the arcade floor. While Funspot currently is considered the largest arcade in the world including redemption games, GGA has the largest collection of non-redemption arcade games in one location. What will game #600 be? You'll have to come to the Galloping Ghost to find out. If you cannot attend, don't worry - tune in to the live stream to find out what the game is, and see the regular arcade goers have first crack at it on Twitch -

After the unveiling, a mini-tournament on this game will ensue with the player achieving the highest score of the night by 2:00am closing time will be recognized as the weekly champion and be one step closer in the chase for the 10x Championship. The 10x Championship is a series of weekly contests on Monday Mystery Games where the first player to win ten high score contests in the series will be presented with the 10x Championship title.
