Stride Gum Ridiculously Long Lasting Gaming Event

June 14, 2006 By News Droid 12 Comments

On the longest day of the year, Stride Gum brings you A Ridiculously Long Lasting Gaming Event: 12 hours of non-stop gaming with you and the pros! There are many prizes to be handed out during the live event: 5 graphics cards, 12 PC games, 12 individual private lessons with the pros and 24 years’ worth of gum.

You can also watch your favorite CS teams battle each other in the East vs. West Exhibition Match. And for those of you who have a soft side for the ladies, you can join pro-gaming female teams Girls Got Game (GX3) and PMS Clan in a live online chat.

The Ridiculously Long Lasting Gaming Event happens June 21, 2006 from noon to midnight EDT.

    Hmmm, I am from Australia & was keen to enter, but the conditions state:

    “Individual contestants must be legal residents of the United States or its territories”

    Maybe I can argue that Australia is a territory of the United States given the close personal friendship between our two leaders ? 😉

    Cool new gum. I would totally try.
    I have been on XFire for years now. Their events are a great opportunity to get pwned by the pros or get schooled in CS or BF2! LOL

    Looks cool. I played in previous events and they were a blast. Last time I even got to frag some of the 3D guys … method and moto are mine!

    Never heard of Stride before, hopefully I’ll win a year’s supply or i’ll have to go pick some up. See you there!

    Woooo I’m gonna love that one! I watch demos from these so called “pro gamers” from time to time and I think they’re overrated (understatement). I’m gonna show ’em what’s a BOOM HEADSHOT!! so count me in!

    anyway really cool from Xfire. keep’em comin’ d00ds~

    XFire is great! I wish they had more events like that. I took part in the event for Intel a few weeks ago.
    Seems to be a good fit to see generalist brands talk to gamers that way.
