DtoidNY's Beach Narp Recap!
DtoidNewYork | 9:31 AM on 07.16.2009 20 comments




This past weekend the wonderful people that make up Destructoid New York escaped the city and traveled all the way down to the southern tip of New Jersey for our very first Beach Narp. Our generous host Keener was gracious enough to let everyone stay at his place for the duration for the weekend and you can bet usual Destructoid New York shenanigans ensued. Of course it goes without saying that this combination of people in this specific setting resulted in an EPIC time. While I could put together a list of what happened throughout the duration of the weekend I have decided that a photo recap of the weekend would be much more appropriate!

Everyone sit down and take a look!


While it started with calm video game playing...


It quickly escalated to full on NARPtitude. (And grilling! Grilling not pictured.)


Some (super exciting) Tiger Woods 10 frisbee golf was played!


Then everyone passed out (and a blanket was stolen for the evening.)


Saturday was off to the beach and a boardwalk arcade. (Which strangely we have a complete lack of beach pictures other than the header image.)

Some SUPER SERIOUS times were had.


And some EXTREME times were had.



We all convened for some Chinese food after and even fought crime in the process!

Upon returning to Keener's house for the evening, 8-player Singstar matches erupted as Team Red squared off with Team Blue





All in all, the weekend was incredible and thank you so much to everyone that made the trip out and assisted in making this happen.

This Saturday is the third annual Wiimbledon event at the Brooklyn's famous Barcade and DTNY will be there. For those who are unfamiliar with the event, it is where people gather together for a Wii Tennis tournament and to drink a lot of beer. You can sign up for the event here. Unfortunately, there is a small entry fee this year of 4 dollars. The event starts at 10:00 AM so be up bright and early for this event. I hope to see you fine people at Barcade this Saturday.
