Event Information

The New York Stax Exchange Open (henceforth N.Y.S.E. Open) is the largest unsanctioned Vintage tournament of the year.  With continued growth, year after year, we have seen a large event (by Vintage's standards) turn into a far larger one, as last year's attendance of 150 players nearly doubled the attendance we saw at the first event. 

Registration for the N.Y.S.E Open will close on the Friday night prior to the event.  Sign-in for players will start at 9:00 am; therefore, I ask that the staff arrive by 8:30-8:45 to prepare logging in the players who have registered for the event.  I expect to max out attendance for the event at our 200 player cap, making this an eight round event before we cut to Top 8.

As far as food goes, there will be on-site barbecue (hot dogs, burgers, and likely vegetarian burgers as well) in addition to pizza.  Water, and other assorted drinks, will be available for free to the judge staff all day, as will candy and chips, if you so desire.

I hope to see you there!
