Thanks for Playing

Important note for those using GPS: Some GPS brands will not properly locate the store's street address. To ensure you're not going somewhere completely wrong, the store is located approximately 1 mile from Exit 26 (Route 80, Urbana MD) off of Interstate 270. Please call the store @ 240-566-5894 if you need assistance with directions.
Food
On-site pizza oven/hot dog machine, drinks, chips, candy, etc
Subway across the street
Giant across the street (salad bar/panini sandwiches) - decent
JP Pizzeria across the street (beer on tap - pretty good pizza, great place to go after an 0-2 start *I know from experience!*)
Chinese restaurant across the street - mediocre at best IMO, but some people really like it...
McDonalds - 5 min walk or 1 min drive
Aside on prizes :As someone who plays tournaments A LOT more often than I run tournaments, I appreciate a fair, well thought-out prize pool where players aren't being screwed over in order for the TO to make a buck or two. Though in all fairness, it's really difficult to create a prize pool that's fair for everyone, but I gave it my best shot - hope everyone agrees that this looks pretty good :)
