GOAT Store Sponsors Big Bang
August 5, 2010
The GOAT Store, LLC is pleased to announce their sponsorship of the Big Bang event in Ottumwa, Iowa, starting today and running through Sunday.
Big Bang is a gathering of gamers in the home town of Twin Galaxies where individuals can compete, see video game celebrities, play and just generally have a ton of fun with other gamers! It is put on by the International Video Game Hall of Fame, a group that is attempting to collect every video game ever made for a future hall of fame that will focus on the players and people responsible for the games, as well as the games themselves.
The GOAT Store will be sponsoring two different groups specifically -- Paul "ZimmZamm" Zimmerman, a record holder whose first record for the 2600 was set at the Midwest Gaming Classic, and who set a new record in 2010 at the show will be there hosting Atari 2600 tournaments, with the participants getting goodies relating to what they play from the GOAT Store.
The GOAT Store will also be sponsoring the www.celebratethearcades.com display of Pac-Man with some cartridges to give away.
