Hey Everyone,

Whether it’s your first or 10th national, it’s important to not forget to pack wisely for the tournament. Some airlines offer up to 3 bags (2 carry-ons + 1 checkin bag) for free. Others may charge per bag. While it’s important to pack reasonably light, you need to make sure you don’t forget the essentials!

One tip that is always useful is to live out of your bag, the day before you travel. This way you can see if you’re actually missing anything. Also, here’s a quick list of things to bring.

1. Important Essentials
– Cash (ATM fees suck in Vegas)
– IDs (traveling, gambling, clubbing, registration, etc…)
– Credit Card (Always handy)
– Deodorant
– Reusable water bottle (It’ll be HOT in Las Vegas)

2. Electronics
– Gamecube controller (preferably two just in case something breaks)
– Gamecube setup!
– Cell Phone
– Cell Phone Charger
– Laptop
– Deodorant
– Power strip

3. Clothes

– Underwear, shirts, jacket, SHORTS, swimtrunks, socks, shoes
– Deodorant

4. Toiletries
– Toothbrush
– Grooming materials
– Deodorant
– Shower goods (shampoo, soap, etc..)
– Towel (If you’re packing in a room)
– Deodorant

5. Bedding
