Join Missoula’s 8-Bit Football Battle! Tecmo Bowl Tournament

Dust off your acid-washed jeans and tease up that hair, the Vlasic Classic Tecmo Super Bowl Tournament is blitzing back into Missoula! On February 1, 2025, the Eagles Lodge will transform into a pixelated gridiron paradise where 8-bit legends are born and dreams of digital touchdowns come true.

Event Details:

• Date: Saturday, February 1, 2025
• Time: 11:30 AM kick-off
• Location: Eagles Lodge, 2420 South Avenue West, Missoula, MT
• Registration Deadline: January 30, 2025, at 11:30 AM

Whether you're a joystick Jedi or a button-mashing beginner, there's a spot for you:

• Competitive Division: For those who eat, sleep, and breathe Tecmo. Trophies go to the top four, with the champion snagging a $250 grand prize.
• Recreational Division: New to the game? No problem! Perfect for kids and adults looking to have some fun. The winner grabs a $100 prize and earns a ticket to the Competitive Division in the next tournament.

Your $30 entry fee includes at least three games, plus pizza and non-alcoholic drinks to keep you fueled. Feeling thirsty for something stronger? The Eagles Lodge bar has you covered.

As an elder millennial, I feel like this game was one of the greatest games Nintendo ever released. Just give me a controller and Bo Jackson, and I could dominate this event... Who am I kidding? My 8-bit days are lost.

Notable past champions include Tyler Gilman, McCoy Connor, and Shane Wilson. Will your name be next on the list?

So, Missoula, are you ready to channel your inner Bo Jackson and zigzag your way to glory? Grab your spot before it’s game over!
