Looks like an 8pm start time on 1/3, with the bubble table to be donated by the local beer rep (rumor is that it is a black base Bud Light promotional table from the old Bud Light Bubble Boy days but no confirmation just yet). Other prizes are in the works too. For now it appears that 1/3 will be the first of several qualifiers but no final word on that either. Whenever I hear more I'll post it here and at www.njbubblehockey.org |

Some of you already are aware of this, but I wanted everyone to get the update re: the bubble hockey tournament(s) being run by Bailey's Bar and Grill, Levittown, PA:
- there will be 8 tournaments, over 8 weeks, starting tonight at 8pm, with winners each week getting some sort of prize;
- winner's each week also advance to the finals, where the 8 winners will compete for a bubble hockey table and other prizes;
- exact dates for the other weeks should be announced after tonight;
- the exact format will not be known until tonight, but the owner is letting me have a say in the bracket, so I am going to push for 3 game series (and some sort of multi-elimination if he'll let me);
- they should have 2 tables and possible 3 on hand - not in the best of shape but serviceable, better than the usual bar table.
That's what I know so far. I'll be at Bailey's tonight about 7pm to try to get this thing organized - hope to see some of you there at some point over the next 8 weeks!

I won week #1 in the Bailey's Tournament, beating fellow SJBHL member Tom Spiegle in the Finals. The format was: - double elimination up to the Winner's bracket final - once there, those 2 players could not drop down to the Loser's Bracker. - 3 game series in both brackets all night - I won a case of Bud Light and a Bud hat; Anthony Gade (Loser's bracket winner, also from the SJBHL) won a shirt and a hat. The local beer rep and the bar manager have said there will be bigger prizes each week, with of course the grand prize a bubble hockey table that the 8 winners from each week will battle for at a date t.b.d. One monkey wrench in all this - right now, this is for NJ/PA residents only, preferrably locals to the Bailey's Bar. The manager and beer rep are pretty adamant right now that they want locals there and locals to get the prizes. I'm working on them, but don't make any plans to attend unless you check with me first - I'd hate to see someone waste a trip. I'll post more updates as I get them. Here's a link to my website's article about the 1/3 tourney at NJBubbleHockey.org: www.njbubblehockey.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=157:jg-wins-1st-ever-baileys-bubble-hockey-tournament-levittown-pa-&catid=1:latest-news&Itemid=9 |

Jimmy "theFuture" Schwartz won week #2 1/10/13, outlasting a field of 16 and beating fellow South Jersey Bubble Hockey League (SJBHL) member Brian "B-Dawg/DJWheels" Nelson in the finals. Tom Spiegle bested Kevin O'Mally to win the Loser's Bracket. There are six (6) more weeks left to qualify for the finals 2/28/13. For now there is still a prohibition on winners from outside the PA/NJ area but I'm still working on it. Come on out to Bailey's for Bubble Hockey!!!

Brian "B-Dawg" Nelson, AKA DJ Wheels, survived a double round, double elimination slugfest, outlasting Kevin "Captain" O'Mally to capture the Bailey's Bubble Hockey Tournament 1/17/13. There are only 5 weeks left to go to qualify for the elite 8 and a chance to win a Bud Light promotional bubble hockey table. Come on out to Bailey's Thursday nights in Jan and Feb for a chance to win great prizes and a berth in the finals!

Tom Spiegle made it 5 for 5 for the SJBHL when he dominated the competition Thursday night 1/31/13 at Bailey's Bar and Grill to win the 5th spot in the elite 8 field and the chance to play in the bar finals 2/28. Only 3 more qualifiers will win in the upcoming weeks - will you be one??? Come on out to Bailey's 2/7 at 8pm and play some Bubble Hockey. Food and drink specials during the tournament, and Bud Light specials all day long. Cheers!!!

Kevin "Captain" O'Mally dominated the 10 player field at Bailey's on 2/7/13, securing the 6th spot in the Elite 8 for the chance to play for a SuperChexx bubble hockey table. He also won a sweet case of Bud Light. Tom Boyle made it to the finals but couldn't get by Kevin, and Anthony Gade outlasted Larry Jefford in a 3 game B flight final - they scored some cool Bud Light hats and a Tullamore Dew t-shirt.
The 8 weekly finalists return to Bailey's to battle for the table on Thursday 2/28. But there is one more qualifier left - 2/21, 8pm, at Bailey's Bar & Grill in Levittown, PA. 2 finalists to fill the 8 player field for 2/28 will survive the double elimination tournament on on 2/21 - will you be one??? Bailey's, 8pm sharp!!!
