He has a weekly tournament that has a cash prize for the winner and time allotments for 2nd and 3rd place.
awesome..

don't mean to sound like im prying so much.. (and it's not like i would be competition in australia lol) but I am very seriously looking at setting one up - it would be a great little cash business.
my only concern is demographics, this town has a fairly "grey" population. which is good in a way - there isn't much for the kids to do except get stoned, drunk or surf because it's too quiet. but the actual number of potential patrons... I don't know..
renting the machines wouldn't be THAT much of an investment.. but the shop lease, candy bar etc could pile it up a bit. plus finding the right slacker to man it, someone who can trouble shoot as well as serve slushies.
dunno what level of investment I wouldn't mind risking.
Theres a great little shopfront right on the main street that would be perfect for it..
