|
|
| JUST RETURNED FROM THE TOURNAMENT ON THE BENEJ BOARD IN ALMA QUEBEC, ABOUT SIX HOURS NORTH OF MONTREAL, IN THE BEAUTIFUL LAC ST-JEAN REGION. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE MR. RICK BENEJ AGAIN AFTER A LONG TIME, EVEN GREATER TO SEE HIM WIN THE C DIVISION TROPHY, IT WAS A THRILL FOR ALL OF US TO WATCH HIM PLAY HIS GAME. THE TOURNAMENT WAS ORGANIZED BY CLAUDE LAVOIE, AND IT WAS AN AMAZING TOURNAMENT AND WEEKEND. GREAT HOTEL, AMAZING REGION, PRETTY GIRLS, AND OVERALL GREAT PEOPLE. THE CHAMPIONSHIP WAS WON BY MARIO QUELETTE, IN HIS FIRST TRY ON THE LATEST BENEJ INCARNATION, AMAZING PERFORMANCE BEATING CLAUDE LAVOIE IN AN AMAZING FINALS, WITH THE TWO FIRST GAMES GOING INTO O.T.. I REALLY ENJOYED PLAYIN ON THE BENEJ GAME, AS DID ALL THE GUYS FROM MONTREAL WHO FARED GREAT ON FIRST TRY ON THIS BOARD. WE WILL START A LEAGUE IN THE FALL IN MONTREAL TO GO ALONG WITH OUR COLECO. BEST REGARDS, SAM ANOUSSIS |

I spoke to Rick Benej about the event actually... he was thrilled. Called it, "the highlight of his table hockey career!" ... so hat's off to the organizers and all the players who were involved. Rick felt that the people, the calibre of play, the format were all first class!
Is there a site or any more information available about the full results?
Any photos?
I will add a youtube link here later, as Rick is sending me that soon. Sounds like it was an amazing fun day for everyone! Can't wait to get one of the new Benej games. |
