LOLApalooza Fundraiser Pinball Tournament

November 15 @ 5:00 pm - November 16 @ 11:30 pm

Come on down and help us fundraise dollars (while playing pinball!) for our friend Mary’s cat Lola, as well as raise money to support the Oregon Humane Society!
The cause: over the past few months, Lola has been diagnosed with cancer, requiring numerous surgeries and ongoing chemotherapy treatment. To help support our friend, a 45% of the entry fees raised will go to support Lola and her family, Mary, Gabriel, and Prudence!
In addition to supporting Lola, we will donate 45% of the entry fees to the Oregon Humane Society, who help support animals across the state!
Best game format: qualify at any time between Friday, 5pm – Midnight, and Saturday, Noon – 4pm. Each player entry will consist of 4 plays on unique machines. Scores can be replaced across multiple entries to create a top score for the player. On Friday, games must be completed by midnight. We highly recommend not starting a game that can’t be completed, as it will be a hard cutoff!
Entry: $10/entry (4 games), or pre-sale Super Value @ $30 for 5 entries! Day of Super Value will be available @ $30 for 4 entries. Note: if you plan to attend on Friday, there is a $4 cover charge for any patron AFTER 7pm.
Players can also purchase $5 free play cards each day, provided of Ground Kontrol.
Rules: Qualifying bank will be announced prior to the start of the event. No practicing will be allowed once qualifying hours begin. 1 flip on EBs. No repeat machines within a single entry. TDs will have discretion on any required rulings, in guidance from PAPA/IFPA rules.
Playoffs will begin Saturday, ~5pm. Cutoff will be determined based on participant count. Expect 12-16 players to advance, on a group matchplay format (# machines / round tbd)
Prizes: as noted, 90% of the entry funds will be split evenly between Lola and the Oregon Humane Society. The remaining 10% cash will go to the winner of the event, with a MINIMUM of $150 guaranteed for the winner. 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place will receive Ground Kontrol gift cards (thank you GK for your support!)
