There is no age limit. It's a family-friendly environment and Risk fans of all ages play. In fact, sometimes the kids are the most dangerous.

I just spent the weekend in the Jim Thorpe area camping and driving through town. It really is a beautiful place, just at the edge of the Alleghenies and the Appalachian Trail. If people are serious about coming to the TOC I recommend bringing some hiking boots and venturing over to the Glen Onoko trails (just a few miles away from town). Great woods, challenging trails and 3 fairly large waterfalls....well worth the trip!

is there a bar close to the venue?

Steelhorse · Post by **Steelhorse** » Fri Aug 10, 2007 6:44 am

Yes, within 20 feet. We also supply soda and kegs of beer all weekend which is included in your registration fee.

Also, there are local bars and restaurants downtown.

Is $5 enough? Or should I go to the bank on my way and get more?? Do you take IOU's?

AK_iceman · Post by **AK_iceman** » Fri Aug 10, 2007 5:22 pm

Hmmm... this tournament sounds more appealing already.

Why? Because Steelhorse will be on a table shaking what his momma gave him?

I am.

I may be back again

sully800 · Post by **sully800** » Fri Aug 10, 2007 8:27 pm

I will only be dancing on tables in my apartment....not any of the Jim Thorpe bars. Fortunately, all friendly young female risk players are invited over. And maybe Kyle as well.

hwhrhett · Post by **hwhrhett** » Fri Aug 10, 2007 8:31 pm

i really really really want to go, but havent decided if i can afford it yet, since i live in texas, and that is far away. :-(

Goz83 · Post by **Goz83** » Sat Aug 11, 2007 6:29 am

Man I would love to go. However, paying about a thousand euro pp on flights alone from Ireland is a bit much at the moment. Maybe in the future I can go. Any chance of a venue change? Say the Hilton at Dublin Airport?

cramill · Post by **cramill** » Sat Aug 11, 2007 11:58 pm

Yeah, it would be cool if they had regional tournaments - easier for people to get to and then the winners of the regionals would win the trip to the big dance - the international risk torunament somewhere.
