LANS ARE BACK

BEN NGUYEN MANAGING EDITOR

LANs are back! After a large time spent in quarantine, offline gaming events are returning to a variety of venues around the DFW area. This is in large part due to the relaxed restrictions and availability of a vaccine, leading many venues to begin opening up for larger events. From arcades to stadiums, Founders lobby to the Student Union, here's some events to watch out for.

Every Thursday at the Free Play Arcade Richardson, Freaks holds a Super Smash Brothers Ultimate Bracket where some of the best in the DFW area (including the UTD Smash Team) compete for the top. Entry to the arcade is $12, and if you're not fighting in the bracket, you can take the time to enjoy the arcade, food and beverages.
