Bloomington Tecmo is the longest running tournament around. Established in 2004 during a Super Bowl party, it's grown to what it is today. Bloomington is a no pressure tournament that wants everyone to enjoy a game we all love without having to worry about whether or not you will win enough money to cover your tournament expenses. If we do offer some cash rewards we don't want people coming strictly for the money. To help provide stress relief we encourage plenty of drinking. To help with the light weights who can't handle there booze by providing food. Anybody wishing to play or attend must pay by February 3, 2019.  Any other questions, comments, or concerns can be addressed by emailing me at Bloomingtontecmo@gmail.com. Thanks, and I hope to see you there!

As of today Bloomington Tecmo is at 24 paid players. I keep reading on Facebook about everyone wanting to play in a tournament that is for players who are not as good. That's us!!! I'm not saying this tournament is going to be easy, but I assure you that you will get plenty of games in. We all play for the love of the game, so if you're wanting to meet some new people and get plenty of Tecmo in come sign up. We've been around longer than any of these tournaments so we can teach some of you rookies a thing or 2 about drinking beer and playing Tecmo.
