I see on the Facebook page that the event is free, but there is no mention of the need for tickets or reservations for spectators. If I want to come and watch, is it ok to just show up, or do I need a ticket/reservation? Thanks. ---

Yeah! Completely free to just come and show up. No need to register for that. It’s open to the public and a great contest to just come hang out and meet people to throw with. 🙂 ---

soooo… interested in getting a jump on planning for 2023, never been to a contest or a meet of any kind but wanna try getting out of the house and meet at least one other thrower in person for once, even just as a spectator… Anything in the works? ---

I also have never been to any event/ meet/etc… nor have i actually encountered any throwers in the wild. That being said, I’m in NW Connecticut and I’d love to go to one of these if you guys are doing them again. I hope you get the dates sorted. kgb ---

We have a ‘tentative’ mini event (Throwdown Contest) here in Easthampton MA the weekend of November 12th… I think that Saturday night - still trying to confirm - but it will be a short Saturday night mini contest.
