This was the first time a Barcraft has been attempted in Cork. Games from MLG Orlando Pool Play were streamed live on the projector and all plasma screens. It was a huge success with approximately 160 attendees. I'm convinced the owner of the bar has never seen such an electrified and cheering crowd before. We've rocked the house!
More to come...

A few words from the founder of the Cork, Ireland Barcraft group on Facebook:
Hey people ^_^ Barcraft has been a hot topic amongst eSports fans for a while and there is talk that it may hit Cork soon - in preparation, I've created this group so that if you hear about a Barcraft event in or around Cork, Ireland, you can let like-minded members know about it! In addition, any public Barcraft events being posted in and around Cork may well make their Facebook Event Debuts via this group, so it's a good place to be to hear about local Barcrafts first.
House rules! This group has been created for everyone to enjoy and the group is not affiliated with any companies or businesses - so regardless of where you work or what ladder you play in, in this group you are just another member of the public that enjoys Starcraft and Beer - remember that and enjoy! (Oh, and if you have a friend that you believe would be interested in the group, of course, invite away!)
